Yes I took pics but planned on waiting til tomorrow to upload them. I'd love to see pics of your bator too (I'm a huge pic hound)! How about we both post pics of our bators tomorrow?

Good luck with your hatch!!! Sounds like you are off to a great start.

ok sounds good, tomorrow I will. too exhausted now. Spent the day putting up plastic fencing ABOVE the existing fencing in the yard, trying to keep my Sumatras in

Here's a few pics of the new bator (taken during set up). First pic was minus most of it's gear. Second pic was before shelf and turner were added. Third pic is looking into finished cabinet through plexiglass hatch on top.

Unfortunately it did not stay as warm as it needed to during the cold night and early morning temps so I need to spend a little more money on a better heating element.

I got it up to 95.7 but no higher.

Eggs!

Wow! What does a Mille Fleur Leghorn look like? I love the Mille Fleur cochins I've seen for sale, but they are not LF. I love the big fluff. Cheryl, do you have somewhere we can go to see photos? Maybe eggs for me... Eventually. Like, next Fall...

I just wanted to post a pic of today's egg from Jetta or Janneke (not sure which of the new Wellies gave the egg to me).

It's in with a few from Buffy.

Yes! Well, maybe....says it for me too, those SLW and GLW are gorgeous, I think I will have to have some of those...

Well, Not sure when they would arrive, haven't checked on availability yet, DH won't be home to talk it over until around 5 pm. I'll check into it. Also won't have any moola until Friday, not sure when you guys would want to order, if we do order. If all three of us split an order that would cut down even more on Shipping prices!

If you are still adding to your order, could you check on a blue, blue laced red, and silver laced? I would like to get two birds, but they say the blue may not be available on the website.
