What is the prize and how do you earn a prize? Most chicks hatched? Highest percentage of eggs to live hatches?

I would like to join this fun hatch along and set eggs on the 10th! I'll have to set a reminder on my fridge and phone, but it'd be fun to have some Halloween babies!

Okay I know I said I don't really want to hatch eggs... But I am thinking that maybye there would be space for twelve more chicks?

Hi guys! Just wanted to ask whats your experience with hatching in winter? I am thinking about incubating 6 eggs and I'm not sure if the chicks need extra care or not. Winter temperatures range from around ( but it can be warmer) -10 to -23 so it is quite cold. How long do the chicks need to be inside? Thanks!

I am going to have my name in the hat.
I cannot let you know how many egg there will be, because I am going to let the hens decide. I will check on the eggs at day 10- Oct. 20 (busy until then), I will candle and get back to you. the number. I don't have fertile promises since my rooster is only 5 months.
