I have been looking at the classifieds, mainly people selling eggs. How do you go about hatching these? I have about 14 hens right now, could I just place them in the nest box and let the ladys do the motherly instinct or do I need to get an incubator then brooder? Do the people selling eggs ensure they are fertile? Are the eggs in the first few days or close to hatching? Sorry, I am looking for a lavender Americuana Roo and a couple of hens but cant find any in my area so I have been thinking about ordering some. Is there a good book about hatching chicks/brooders that you would recomend?
Thanks for any input,
