That's awesome.

I have a question, I am looking at incubators.... I know, I know, I'm addicted

. What does everyone use? I would ask over in the incubating eggs section, but I know you guys and thought I would get opinions from friends first.

Thanks, and see y'all in Merrimack.

BTW Gypsy - I emailed Jen your PM, she is the green thumb, I just dig where she tells me too

your going to hatch!! lol awesome. well my best small one is a hovabator maybe, my point is get the one that does the temp on its own, turns on its own, with a fan.
stay away from that stupid wafer if you can. of course this is my opinion. but that is my best incubator, then i have 2 styro with no fan but turners, my worst incubator to date .

Chickn,
Not only are we going to hatch, I'll eventually get a speckled sussex roo, but Jen is into genetics, with a degree in applied animal science (now she's a stay at home mom ), and we are considering cross breeding the dom's and the speckled sussex to create the look of an early New England dung hill fowl (what would have been found on farms in New England in the 18-19th centuries). We will also be breeding Dom's, we have a Dom cockerel.

I wont be selling at any events in May. Not even Milford. Next one we will have cookies and sauce at is Keene.
I will be going to Milford to possibly pick up, if Twinlights needs something. And to get my veggie plants from vnsseed

We will go to the Keene Swap as well---that's very local for us.

We love the Milford swap and plan to go to that one on May 23. Other than that, i'm not sure. Has a thread been started for Milford May 23 yet?​
