First timer homeschool Hatcher!

Hi everyone! I’m Oorooj from London. I’m a homeschooler and a Birth Doula!

So currently, we look after chicken and ducks in our local community garden.

This inspired me to hatch my own chickens! So went on eBay, bought fertilised eggs, all the equipment and ready to start!

need lots of support and advice, so here I am!

Thank you!
I’ve been meaning to ask a question, wasn’t sure if I should just ask here!

day one of incubation for my Poland eggs was 30Th May. I candled all the eggs on day 7 and looked except a couple so I decided to buy two Silkie eggs separately and put them with mine.Now they are due to hatch on the 17th

for my eggs today, it’s day 16 (14th June)

For the those which are due on the 17th, it’s day 18 today. I have put all of them on lockdown.

has anyone else done this before? I’m so worried for the Poland eggs.

Hello, Oorooj, and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.
It's not a good idea to have a staggered hatch. Good luck with it.
