I set a few eggs at the same time you did! A variety from from my own flock, a few of this and a few of that.... I don't know what the fertilty rate will be. We'll see....

I set mine in a Sportsman to incubate and will hatch in my HovaBator (move them into there on day 18). Humidity I use is 35% incubation, and 60 - 65% for the hatch.

I have a bunch due the 25th and then the 27th, oh, and a few next week, yay!

Done...I set my eggs at 4pm today...! yay

...here's fingers crossed....

now we just sit and wait

Yay! I am sooo excited! Set 3 more eggs (buff orpingtons). I sure am hoping for a decent hatch! 21 of the 37 eggs are shipped. So we shall see! I am really hoping for atleast a pair of the crele wyandottes. Those eggs were expensive! And I am hoping for at least one frizzle cochin because my frizzle cochin, Porky, needs a buddy. She roosts by herself because she cant fly to the roost. Poor baby

I have had the hatching bug for months now, and I have been waiting for this hatch for forever! It is going to be extra special to have babies at Christmas!

Sorry, have been working and just remembered to come back and read here. My eggs did not arrive, so I will not be having any Christmas babies. I have my fingers crossed that the eggs will show up on Monday and I can set them on Tues.
I am going to follow this thread but I will be a few days behind all of you!!!

I will be joining you guys, but I will be a day or so late. My new eggs arrived yesterday. I did have to wait until the eggs I already had in the bator to hatch. I got three out of the original 6 Frizzle Cochins eggs Yesterday and candled the remaining 2 and decided rightly that they were quitters one early and one late

I have 9 Blue Cochins and 3 Copper Maran eggs. Redesigned my turner tray and am waiting for the temps to stabilize. Will probably set them about 2 pm.
