Hi everyone, I have decided to hatch some chicks, it will be my first time hatching chickens in the incubator. Now, my grandparents have experience with raising and hatching eggs so I have some support but I still need some advice.
1. The problem is that only one person has eggs from one of the breeds I want to hatch and it will take at least a week to get those eggs and I'm not sure how long I can wait from the time I got those eggs until i can get the other eggs I also want to add.
2. Can I have the incubator in my living room or should I have it in the basement.
3. Is it ok to start hatching in February or is it to soon and it will be to cold?
4. Can I hatch miniature chickens with 'normal' sized chickens or is there a different in hatching?
5. The eggs will be delivered through the post, what should I be careful about? I know they have to be left alone turned down for 24h when delivered.
