Set 22 barnyard mix chicken eggs on March 18th. They are primarily Australorp/Easter Egger and Crested Cream Legbar. Candled again yesterday and only had to pull one. Also set 22 Welsh Harlequin duck eggs on the same day, but they will take another week.

Still have to get the brooder ready to go and get some starter feed! Yipes!

This makes me appreciate broody hens, all the more. I hate getting the brooder ready. Good luck with your hatch.

Day 16 for Queenie, so I'm going to lock the other girls out of her nest tonight.
( There are only two girls with her and I've been gathering unmarked eggs daily)

It does sound like the eggs are developing well.

Eggs are in lockdown!

Mine are too, sorta. Since I have three different batches in the incubator. I separated the first batch and won't be turning them anymore. In a couple of days, I'll up the humidity.
