Anyone Setting Eggs Tonight 3/31/2011 - Come join me if you like!

I had set a whole bunch on the 31 but do not remember what I had set now...I know I set some call duck eggs but that is all I remember right now. I will look later when I get a chance. I am at work right now unfortunately.

Hey Brinsea people, I still have to sing the praises of my Hovabator 1588 - and it's a lot cheaper! It may be styrofoam, but my temps are rock solid and it's easy to use. I'll let you know how the hatch turns out. If I had to wait to save the money for a Brinsea there's no way we'd be hatching anything this spring.

Lockdown's tomorrrow for us, here's hoping for happy silkies and bantam Ameraucana peeps. Monday a.m. we're also scheduled to receive DD's Dorkings and my Speckled Sussex from McMurray -- lots of chicks for us this week. I just set up a double-decker brooder in the downstairs bathroom to handle everyone. Good thing DH is a good sport.

Happy hatching, everyone!

#11 chick is out! Also #5 quail is out but the fourth quail that hatched had something wrong with it and it died shortly after it hatched so I am still at four quail. #12 chick is zipping so it should be out shortly.

Nice! I tried button quail last year, I couldn't believe how tiny they were! The looked like little bugs running around their brooder! Lol
