IA (incubators anonymous) September Hatches?

[Cyprus]

I have seen several people's that refer to it being too late to start another hatch. Is that due to egg availabilty, or climate? I am in Florida. It is still 76F right now at 10pm, and 90s during the day. It won't get "cold" here until January, lol.

Oh well then you should be fine lol.
I thought you might be in a colder climate.
Hatching season is based more on climate.

Yes, you are, @KikiLeigh02 ! But that's good! A new batch would be 3 months old by the time I have a cold front move through, lol.

Yes, up where you are I can understand not starting another set. I just need to find some local eggs instead of getting shipped eggs!

How are your other chicks doing?

They are doing great, thanks! My first hatch OE and her CMs sisters are almost a month old and looking kind of goofy, but growing fast. The purchased chicks, 7, are about 3 weeks and starting to look goofy, too! They all have names now, lol. How are yours?

Huge! The Leghorn mixes are so big! I knew the Bielefelder would be large, but the Austra Whites are just as big. I'm really loving the way this OEGB is feathering out.

Two of the CMs in their "bad hair" phase, lol.

Sorry! My goal is 20 total, and I have 11 chicks. I am afraid that this hatch isn't going to get me to 20
So... Do I put myself through another incubation, or just buy chicks?

I have too many. Probably have to get rid of my guineas to keep all my chicks. You can have 5 of my SGs, lol. I still have a week to go on the shipped game fowl eggs. I haven't called the guy to see how they are doing yet.

Thanks for the offer! I wish I was close enough to take you up on it, lol.
