IA (incubators anonymous) September Hatches?

[Jules929]

Now to find someone in the area that sells hatching eggs! These 2 chicks brings me to 13 total. My goal is 20

I noticed that you didn't say you were done hatching....You hatch-a-holic, you. Finding the breeds you want close is tough! I hope you're able to find what you're looking for!

Lol, noticed that, did you? No, not done incubating, just going to increase my odds by not starting with eggs already scrambled, courtesy of the USPS. Ybor City distribution held on to them way too long. I would have driven the 30 minutes to pick them up if someone there would answer the phone. I would have had the eggs 2 days earlier!

...Unfortunately, none of the other eggs are viable. I am done with shipped eggs.

Oh no! Holy crap that sucks!

How far are you from Greenfire Farms? They sell hatching eggs and have many breeds.

Thanks! I have checked them out online. They don't offer hatching eggs from their website, only on eBay, when available.
I am about 300 miles southeast from them.

Ugh that's a long drive. I bet though, if you were willing, they'd sell you what you wanted if you were picking it up. I've never bought anything from them, but have talked to them and they are nice folks.
It's an option at any rate...
I wonder though if you should wait. Pickings will be slim right now and fertility may be low as birds go into molt.

Thank you!
I have considered waiting. Not one of my strengths, lol! However, I have 3 different age/size groups, which means 3 different brooder/grow out pens. I don't want to add a fourth. So waiting would make more sense!

Oh my goodness, I have one quail chick. I really hope at least one more hatches. What in the world am I going to do with one solo quailie?!?

Oh, no! I hope you have more hatch! How many eggs are still in the running?
