you will likely have all you want.
Oh! Going Sunday to look/get some Gold Laced Orps

Have to sell a few birds at the auction, to cover some of the cost, so hubby doesn't throw a total fit!

I so need to build a hatcher but I am handy in no way! Anyone got plans for a easy way to build a hatcher out of one of those foam coolers? I can get my hands on those at all times for free but I don't know anything about building one.

A hatcher is EXACTLY the same as an incubator. The only difference is you set it up for higher humidity and you don't need to turn the eggs. They are great because you don't have to change anything in your incubator.

There are LOTS of great incubator plans here on BYC.

Congratulations!!! When I branch out into geese those are the ones I want.

Requires no turning? Color me very intrigued.

Well I had kind of a crappy two days soo I got myself a couple of treats.
Initially I just went into the feed store to look and cheer myself up but I couldn't resist.
Besides I need someone to keep me company while I have my nose plastered to the incubator glass.
