I now use a Genesis 1588 hovabator...its amazing..keeps perfect temps and humidity! Hatching with it this year has seriously been awesome! Every egg I put in there hatched! I use to use a little giant..but after frying acouple $100 in eggs I bought off ebay, I had to buy a new incubator.

Thanks...that one seems to be really popular. I might purchase one this week. I have a brinsea mini but it only holds seven/ ten without the self turned and I want more space. My hubby thinks I should get a second mini because we like it so much but I was thinking something cheaper and bigger lol

I got them up in Woodstock. Very nice guy. He said they're about three weeks away from laying.

Yes I think he was trying to thin his flock. He had beige ones too

I am getting impatient waiting for my first egg! Combs are red, sitting in boxes, waddles hanging.
