Gasp! Just figured out my good digital basal body thermometer that I have been trusting for temps has been WRONG! It was right before but I think the batteries are low or something. I've suddenly been struggling with erratic temp shifts as low as 96 and high as 102. I have been thinking someone was messing with the A/C or the knob was getting bumped by a cat or something. Stuck an extra thermometer back in there this morning. digi was reading 97 again - the other said it was actually 102 in there :( I recandled the egg we candled on day 7 and it still had a heart beat - so I am hopeful not to have done too much harm :/

There is nothing more dangerous to chicken math than hatching one chick. Try and limit yourself to 20 store bought.
I got a message from a local breeder of the list of what he has. THey hatched 5 different breeds yesterday and have about 6 others ranging from a week to 12 weeks. I need some one to tie my hands behind my back before i leave.... But that would make driving difficult. lol

5 breeds, 4 of each to make sure you get at least one pullet. Do I have a crystal ball or what?
 
I will be out of town for another hatch. How and why do I do this to myself?!?!?! Here's the deal, Sally eggs are set to hatch btw 8/8-8/10. Some are seramas so they hatch a little early, right? I will be at home to lock them down on 8/8 or have them hatch and leave later that day. I will not be back in town until very late 8/12. So should I just take the whole set up to my mom's house on the 7th and have the hatch there.
