Do you plan the next hatch when you set the first?

How many of you plan the next hatch when you set the first?

It all depends how full the brooders are. Right now I'm taking a break from hatching till I have more space in the brooder. (of course when the weather breaks that won't be an issue) I am getting some test eggs in a few weeks and plan on ordering some leghorns and pied guineas for right after. By then my Pearl Guineas should be laying so I will test their eggs next. LOL...oh wait, I'm not done! By then end of summer my BCM's and Silkies should start laying so I'll have to test all those. I have two LG's. 1 is the incubator with turner the other is for hatching only. So I often do staggered hatches.


Now...the big BUT: if someone said tomorrow 'will you test these?' or I found a really great deal on some show quality BCM's....I'd have the 'bator fired up in 2 minutes flat! So that is all subject to change.

LOL -- I am blessed to have a Sportsman GQF where each tray holds 90 eggs -- I can keep rolling hatches going, and usually do.
