I have the whole top clear one but the fan takes up so much room and I don't have the side view. I just want to see it all!

Set up a camera!

That's a good idea! You hatch in a Hovabator, don't you? So you just set the camera on a tri-pod looking down?

I have taped the camera to an egg carton and to the side of the incubator. The last time I taped it to the glass food storage container that I use for extra humidity.

I need to find a camera with a short focus though.

I think I over stuffed my genesis incubator this time, LOL. Not much room in there! They are due to start hatching Sunday.

Ooooh, that is a lot of eggs! Looks like a bunch of fun! What are you hatching?

Hey guys, I've got ducks if you're interested. 9 Muscovy left at $15.00 each. Send me a PM if interested.

Barnevelders and blue barnevelders. The ones in the egg cartons are blues and will hatch 2 days after the pure barnevelders in a staggered hatch. I will wait a week or so and set another batch, but probably not as many. Trisha

OK, I just fired up my incubator. For those of you that are on my list for BWA and GCMs, keep your fingers crossed that there are lots of BWA and GCM pullets in there for you! I am hatching out some bantam BLRW chicks for a BYCer in Nevada, but I should have some extras if anyone is interested.

I still have room in the back row for any other eggs that are laid today.

I would love to add some blue Barnvelders some day! So pretty! I am a sucker for blue!

Would the egg laid by a young pullet who is still laying small eggs grow into a healthy bird any less than from a mature hen who is laying larger eggs?
