Diary & Notes ~ Air Cell Detatched SHIPPED Chicken Eggs for incubation and hatching

[Sally Sunshine]

So annoyed!
I thought everyone of my themp gages are inaccurate accept two are pretty much reading the same! So I did the calibrating test. And one reads +6.8c another 0.8 c and another 1.7c. Erghhh! So now I'm thinking my eggs are going to be well late!!
Or early?? God it's all confusing with kids around me!!!

Hi,

I have another for sure batch coming next week of BBS Cochin and Cochin x's and plan to purchase another set of hatching eggs Monday that will be beautiful Wheaten/Blue Wheaten Am's, BBSC Marans and Olive eggers! For a total of 36+ eggs! You fine people have turned me slowly into a hatch a holic and can't wait to get them, just praying the P.O. Workers are easy on them! These will be shipping from farther than my last two shipments, with those shipments the eggs looked great.

Anyway, off to read back a few pages in this thread to see what's going on, I am on the incubators anonymous thread and thought I would pop over here per it being mentioned.

YAY duckies bellah !!!

aww sorry some birds have to go cochins !! i am so glad chicken math works here with DH and the in laws although my sister says it needs to slow down until after the move ...

I don't dare tell her that for the first time ever we are gonna have shipped eggs coming in lol

SEE WHAT YOU GUYS AND GALS STARTED

so ... we are ordering next week and will have about 2-3 breeds coming in to hopefully make some hens for some of the roos and start up a new breed or two that i have wanted ... still shopping to see which silkies I want to order.. my patridge guy needs some more company ....

but dont tell my sister ....this is last hatch before i go to head out ...

Quote: No I just put a small, shallow dish with water in there for them. They like to play with their water and wet their food in there when they eat. They'll grab some chick crumbs and straight to the water bowl with it. Really cute to watch, but they make an awful mess of the water very quickly!

this is a dangerous place to lurk when contemplating hatching lol that is a certain fact !! lol but a fun place to learn and talk ... sitting around rereading the hatching thread so i have an idea of the difference when doing shipped eggs versus from my own backyard lol

like not worrying and them hatching unassisted????

Quote: not worrying never happens lol im a worry wart by nature hoping they hatch by themselves though ... not sure i am good at the assisted hatch lol i just wanted to know what to do different between the two so i am well prepared ..or as much as i can be
