I think I’ve decided to give my broody bantam cochin some cream legbar eggs instead of eggs from her own pen. That will also make it easier to remove the other hens eggs, since they won’t be CL blue!
That’s my plan for tomorrow morning.
I’m thinking 7 eggs. Lucky 7?

quick update! I have received my incubator, candler, and thermometer/hygrometer! everything has been set up, calibrated, and double checked! I cleaned out my brooder box to be ready to go again by hatch date as all of the chicks have successfully transitioned outside (15 silkies and 6 amerecauna/EE’s). My egg assortment is in shipping as Meyer hatchery collects on Mondays, ships on Tuesday, and transit time is 1-3 days. I’m driving myself crazy hoping for some breeds that I don’t have yet!! I ordered 6 even though my incubator will hold more knowing that they sometimes ship an extra or 2. Will update with exact #, breeds, and set date as soon as they arrive!!

Excited to set eggs tomorrow, hoping my Tolbunt polish lays one more egg. I have 7 so far.
