A gentleman is selling me his 42 egg Little Giant incubator with an Autoturner and fan. I'm curious about reviews on it since I've never used one. Any tips as well would be greatly appreciated! I currently have a Brinsea Mini 2 Advance that only holds 7 eggs so this is a big jump for me.
Hey everyone,
I'm not at all affiliated with Meyer Hatchery. We just ordered nine chicks from them in December 2019 and I thought people might find my experience with it useful. I had backyard chickens for years but never got chicks in the mail before. We specifically ordered a Blue Ameracauna...
Hello everyone!
I’m looking for reviews on egg incubators based on you results on using the machines. I currently have a Little Giant and was successful in incubating the eggs; however, the temperature and humidity fluctuated way too much. I would check on the incubator 8 times a day and while...

Does anybody use a brite-tap waterer? If so: How do you like it? Any algae growth? Easy to clean/install? Do your chickens like it? How many chickens do you have per brite-tap?
Thank you guys in advance for the insight! :)
I got a 3 day old Mille Fleur today and I want to know how friendly they are and how nice the roosters are. Because of it's size will it be prone to pecking? Since I live in Canada and the temperatures in the winter are extremely cold (the lowest -40C -40F) is it cold hardy? The least amount of...
Hey, I am looking into getting one of these to hatch some welsh harlequin eggs. Does anyone have reviews on the product or recommendations for other chap incubators? Thanks for your input!
