Out of all the participants who set their eggs on Dec. 11th, how many have the brooder staged and ready?

Mine's always set up and ready! Right now, there are already 2 seramas, 3 quail, 2 silkies, and a showgirl in it lol

She kicks like a mule! 1 egg a day since she invited herself into the RBSW Hotel.
Took about 12 pix but all blurry because she was flapping and freaking out. She has lived in the caged free and tree sleeping mode for 6 months or so. Tarzan Style!

Yep!

leg color and pea comb give it away. She should lay a lot of eggs for you until age thee

Don’t take it down. Just plug it back in and go.

She is an escapee from a batch for sale months and months ago. She was deemed in-catch-able. Then she wonders into domestication one day. lol Living with the Free Roos. The Roos are tame though. She is renegade.

Im up and running! Although I have 10 chicks from my Dec 3rd hatch in it. Time to build another grow out pen, and kick them out! Bring on the babies!!!

Mine stays in the barn. When needed, lights and heaters are plugged in and it all starts again with new chicks.

Set 16 eggs (13 Silverudds blues and three 55 flowery hen) at 7 pm last night. Some of the air cells are a bit loose (though the one day wait afforded by the faster-than-expected shipping seems to have helped some) , so I ran the egg turner only long enough for it to move to the upright position. I'll plug it back in in a couple of days. 2 or 3 days no turning for loose air cells?
