Thanks Anderson, have you had any hatch? Can't remember?

nope, but tomorrow is actually day 21. I am waiting for 7 Araucanas and 1 Serama. So glad you got the Lavs you wanted.

My friend's husband came over today to measure out for my second coop though! That was good news. I'll post when they pip.

Waiting for pips! And that doll house on your site looks just like the one I had back in the 60's! I loved that thing.

All Dead. Temperature spike last week must have been longer than I feared.

Separate batch in good incubator is down to six eggs: 5 Iowa Blues & 1 Silver Laced Bantam.

anderson, what kind of bator do you have? If you by chance have a still air, and also have the egg turner, I would take the eggs out of the egg turner, and do that manually. The still air with the turner just puts the eggs too close to the heating elements. I had to learn the hard way.

I started with a homemade one. I have a Hovabator with egg turners and fan now. The homemade one cooked them. Thanks though.

I thought I might catch some slack from the peeps that think you shouldn't help because of "nature". I think that's dumb.
