Quote: Looking at this post from the pinned links at the beginning, the air cells are looking between 14-18 day size. Sooooo, I think I'll keep the humidity on the slightly high end, around 50%, like what we did for my aloha NN hatch. I thought the no candling rule for days 10-14 was not about light, but about handling them, since they were rotating into position at that time.

I just went to GFF to look - OMG, did you see they now have a chicken called the DEATHLAYER?!?!

(If I had the room and unlimited time and money, I'd love to have Black Penedesenca, Isbars, Ayam Cemanis, Light Sussex, Lavender Wheaten Ameraucana, Orust, Brabanter, and Kraienkoppe - and the DEATHLAYER, of course! Oh, and several types of turkeys and ducks and geese, and goats, and, and, and.... )

I dont think momma knows about handling them around that time lol, I use set the candler on the eggs in the bator I dont really ever move them except turning

Did you see the new blue birchen marans GFF imported? I so wish I could buy some right now.

59 each straight run. they posted images on fb and they are so freaking lovely!!!

I'll probably get shot by someone on here, but I'm sorry; in my world, a $59 chick ain't been hatched yet
