Wow! You're going to have a beautiful flock of chickens!

BB red old english eggs are here! I'm going to let them rest until tomorrow evening when I pick up my duck eggs.

Feel free to "unwatch" this thread at any point if you aren't interested anymore. This is mainly for my records.

Ok, so added 6 welsh harlequin duck eggs and found my goose sitting on 2 eggs so I added those as well! I have a feeling this incubator will never be completely empty...

Mottled cochin bantam eggs went into lock down yesterday! I was going to breed them but I think I've decided to just keep seramas, satins, and old english. So I'll be selling any of these that hatch.

3 Mottled cochin bantams hatched!

The hose to my humidity kit got kinked while I was out of town and the humidity dropped to 22%, I'm not sure for how long either 3 chicks had pipped but were shrink wrapped, I got them out and they are fine. Not sure if the other eggs in that batch will hatch though.

Added 8 goose eggs today as well so that's exciting!

Candling update: currently developing

Welsh harlequin/blue swedish eggs 4 out of 6
Bb red old English 14 out of 17
Call duck eggs 3 out of 3!!

Pencil laced satins due to hatch tomorrow!

Oh and my Dun satin hen is about 2 weeks in on 9 eggs, all developing. So she'll have 4 eggs from my satin pen and 5 from my serama/old english pen.

If there's a naked neck frizzle there's a 99% chance I could be talked into it
