BYC's 13th Annual New Year's Day Hatch-Along - 2022

[Smiles-N-Sunshine]

But I accidently set them on the 14th, oops, three days late it is!

We can hang out in detention for being tardy.

Rabbits will be fun!

Are they going to be pets or for meat?

meat. I started a thread seeking advice here on BYC

When I was very little, my Mom raised rabbits for meat. When I was about 3, I asked when the new kittens would be old enough to eat...I do not remember this though....

I now have 5 eggs from the mixed pullets. Maybe by Easter hal they’ll lay big enough eggs to hatch.

I started with 15 eggs for New years hatch. I had to remove one. I am down to 14.

I candled my sticky eggs from Greenfire Farms. Fortunately I only put those in that line of the incubator as their foam shipper's adhesive is now on my incubator. Hoping I can get it all out without too much trouble. I regret setting them now as I have sticky eggs rolling around in my bator, but the eggs weren't cheap and too late for a do-over and at this point, I'm going to see how they do. Sadly, their black pita pintas were all clear, in addition to being sticky. The others, including others with the glue, are developing fairly well for now. Hopefully the glue isn't something toxic that's going to harm the developing embryos.

On a more positive note, the other eggs from two other places, all American Bresse, are developing well and I'm starting to get excited about adding this new breed!
