Well my eggs are not set yet :-(
......I can't post my thoughts or words for the next few minutes cuz they were not appropriate. 6:30 wife tells me her friend stopped by today and her kids were around the bator but they did not tuch it. It's 7:30 now and waiting for it to regulate 102.

Children ~ I love them dearly but I had to get rid of my littler giant incubators because they would touch them and the knobs just called out to them.

Yay! Just got the call that my Marans eggs are at our Post Office!

I felt the same way when I got the call.

I can't believe how much fun I'm having with this Hatch-a-long. I thought I was excited for my first time incubating (this is only my second) , but this is so much more fun! It's so great to share in the experience with so many other people!

Is it terrible of me that it has been only day 1, and I'm already looking forward to the Easter Hatch-a-long?

The Easter Hatch A Long is really fun too..a lot more folks on that one, spring is a preferred time for a lot of people.

I would like to join the hatch along. I just got 18 eggs today to put in the incubator.

Your Welcome and Thank You!

I love how there are so many spaces for hens and one for the rooster.

Hahaha... Such optimism.
