EDUCATIONAL INCUBATION & HATCHING CHAT THREAD, w/ Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs

Morning..

I have been busy already today designing a new roll-away cage for my egg eaters.

I am going to heed @Akrnaf2 's advice. The egg eaters will never free range again. I need their eggs, these are my show birds and mot my layers. If these were layers they would already be resting comfortably in the freezer or oven.

I do not want them teaching the rest of the birds. I will keep them in the cages and let them have congenital visits with the rooster once a week. The Rooster will never be free again either. I think they learned this habit at a Show in November. I had no problems before that and it has been a problem since.

Here is this mornings "through the glass" photo into the hatcher




Toads and a cuckoo Maran in the front section, Dominiques and Yokohamas in the middle section and in the far section we have Speckled Sussex and Legbars.
 
Well my ducks don't seem to have it on as well as the chickens did, 11 clears and what looks like a quitter leaving 22 good eggs. But the rest seem to be going strong!

DO the drakes need as much light as long as a rooster to be fertile?
