Wow, Kathy...that is a crazy zip!

Never knew they could zip that way. Just to be clear, that is not one of mine.

Sally, I am so excited. I had 14 eggs form DMRippy (super blue egg layer) and I had the incubator in the storeroom on day one. In La the heat spiked to 110 in the 'bator . I battled all day to get it below 100 and couldn't. So I brought them in. Not really expecting something but yesterday on day 20 I started hatching. I did the dry hatch 35%-45% humidity. Higher yesterday and today. Out of the 13 that went to lockdown I have 11 babies and I'm hearing more cheeping. I'm a total newbie with a new incubator. Stunned. You have helped me so much. I'll try to get pics soon.

Oh how awesome!!! you go girl! I cant wait to see them! yay!!!

Too early to tell color or sex. Could be one of two colors, black shoulder or cameo.

I have a three week old White faced Spanish running around the woods and it lives under a brush pile, and for the life of all of us we cant catch the little booger in the woods as its thick with brush and prickers! It goes into the layer run through the wire to eat and drink, but it wont fit through for too much longer the stinker!


Suggestions>? lol I told hubs to just let it do what it wants, I put water and feed out side the run now.

Could you put a hen in a small cage within a bigger cage/trap?
