anyone due on feb. 8th-13th??

[Hen House 60]

I am set to hatch for the 1st time around the 12th or 13th. I am already nervous & anxious. I can't imagine what the last 3 days are going to be like.
I set 74 eggs, I know crazy for the 1st time. My incuabtor is currently holding: 34 RIR, 15 Australorp, 21 Phoenix, 4 SIlkies. I also have the ones that I bought and were shipped to me, but I am not counting on them. 8 out of the 12 were broken

Stay turned for pics!

ok i would love to but as the actual swap goes i live in the city and am not really allowed roosters and as of now i for to cockeral and 1 laying hen but i will greatly pay for them tho

BockBock,
I would be more than happy to give you eggs, just would need to send the price of shipping and the bubble wrap. Remember, there may be eggs fathered by my other EEx? rooster, but the Buff is definately the dominate rooster so I would assume that most of the eggs would be his kids. I have 2 Buff hens so some of the eggs might be purebred.

Get through your big hatch and I will learn to pack eggs in the mean time!

Do quail eggs count? If everything goes right and I have any eggs develop, I should have a hatch on 2/9 (my dad's birthday, lol).

I'm due to hatch on the 8th, and then again on the 12th. The first batch are the first of my own eggs that I've ever incubated, and on the 12th I'm hatching my second batch from TheFarmersWife, which I am SOOO excited about

I'm glad there are a few of us to chat to as we pace back in forth in front of the incubators!

Due on the 9th. I don't feel like I should run my incubator less than full, so I have 48 in my Brower Tophatch.

24 are Rhode Island Red from someone in Portland.

24 are Barnyard mix from JazziJ in Camas, a few blocks away.

I'm hoping for a better hatch than my nonexistant last one.
