Aspen, good luck! I have had Serama since OCtober 2010 and numerous shipped eggs from many different people.

I am just now getting all the pieces to fall in place. I have switched totally to using the GEnesis 1588s for incubating and hatching. Also use the dryer humidity incubation method.

Will try a broody when I get one.


FROGGIE, I will be happy to share when the weather cools off for shipping!

I have a Gensis Hova-Bator 1588... I really like it and I'm wanting to test out the Dry incubation method. When I heard of it I was already half way through the incubation so I don't know how it effected my hatch?

Awwwww I love them!

I have 3 new frizzles in my latest hatch and it is going to be so hard for me to let them go. I just love these little guys!

btw... not everyone wants to breed to compete... like most canary breeders i know, only one of them competes and the others just breed for type and color... i came to a decision to never compete or show my serama... but i will still breed to type not color... also... nothing is wrong with being a propagator than a breeder... the way i see it... most serama folks are propagators... they sell or give away their culls... out of the 30something oegb that hatched not that long ago, i'm only releasing 12 or so... i'm only holding back two... the same will be practiced on the seramas i want to breed...

I have hatched my last two batches - with great results - at that humidity. It runs between 45-50% then I up it to 70-75%. Seems perfect for my climate but I know others use different degrees for their areas.

Your dogs and chickens would love to have them as scrambled eggs if you don't feel you can eat them. I also crush the shells and feed back to my birds. But they have a treat of scrambled at least once a week. The dogs get them a couple of times a week.

I have a few birds that I will not hatch from and 1 that has never been fertile, there are sometimes also eggs that were in the heat too long and eggs that are too dirty for me to want to mess with.....so they go in the dog/chicken bowl for scrambling day.

I do the same. My animals love scramble day

I got mine off BYC.

the gray bird is not a serama. She's an Easter Egger bantam. She just lives with them. She's my only bantam that's not a serama. I have 5 chicks though that are smooth.​
