Mine are set. Had to order turkey eggs. No one has any turkeys around us.

And the count down starts.

10 turkey eggs and 2 mallard eggs set. I might add any mallards over the next 48 hours though.

6 sweetgrass turkey & 6 Guinea eggs added to my already overflowing incubator. Hopefully, one of my hens will go broody and help me out!

Good luck to those that have already set!

Here's the Porter hens eggs compared to chicken eggs. Seem small . She isn't very big. almost a year old.

I'm in, and in, and in(sane). Not setting turkeys until tomorrow, because I just robbed the nests and they need to warm up - and I need to re-arrange incubators - everything is already 'full'. (HA!!! is an incubator ever truly full?.

)
Going in this HAL-
tomorrow: 20 turkey eggs, Slate/NG cross
on the 14th: 24 Red Dorkings - or whatever gets here unbroken, and enough Banties to top off the incubators again...
Will take pics tomorrow.

Those *are* small - what breed is she? I'm unclear on that...
