I made a home incubator by using a temoerature controller and two very cheap cpu fans. For the box i used a cartain box which is got from a neighboring shop for free.
It was stressful . Phewww. Yes it was. But i have hatched 16 out of total 18 at day 21 today. 2 remaining are most probably dead as they have not shown any signs of life today. I have candled them as well and no internal or external peeps yet.
My children are too happy amd we have kept a hen that went broody 3,4 days after incubation we placed fake eggs under her to let her wait for the incubated eggs. Thanksfully she has accepted all 16 chicks and not a single peck from her .
This post is just to say thanks for all the guidance i received from this forum.
