HATCHING/INCUBATION
granny hatchet 2/10 I put 50 eggs in today and had room for 22 more. LOL I opened all of todays eggs as it was freezing out and didnt see any thing watery. no ice except for the fact I have an egg eater and found a frozen yolk. they will be due March 3rd.
Fire Got all the breeders separated back into their pens. So we will be incubating heavy here in the next couple of weeks.
Sally great hatch, waiting on serama //// eggs from sara and martha set 1/24 day 7 legbar, projects, marans, Lemon Cuckoo orphingtons, tolbunt polish, and some mix silkies, add hole bator of serama more CCL serama misc in cabinets and coolers
J&TRanch 1/12/16 12 self blue Cochin bantams (shipped) day 3 (going to candle today to see how many are viable).... And 18 eggs arriving in the mail tomorrow @J&Tranch My shipped self blue bantam Cochins are doing good. I had to throw out a stinker and a seeper
So out of those 10 remaining, 7 are developing nicely
They're on day 7. I ended up receiving 16 shipped from GA, they looked good considering the single digit temps- only 3 saddles and none cracked. They're on day 3 today, will candle Wednesday maybe.
Saris10 (+2) Bielefelder eggs. going to set 2/12!
TJ The original two surviving Serama eggs from the shipped mushy mess have bit the dust. From the newer shipped mess there are two still developing. They do have horrible saddle cells, so not a lot of hope for them either. My purple Guineas have just started laying and people are wanting chicks, so.....Pulling out the Mind Reading Bator this weekend!
Casportsponyday 34 for the Muscovy eggs and it looks like I have one external pip, two internals. One of the eggs have a huge "bruise" at the bottom of the shell, so I doubt it's still alive.
LocalYokel 13 Dominicker 5 Leghorn, may be White or Brown, mostly Whites in that coop.(Not the cheery oldish dude Whites) Hope the Doms and Leghorns are fertile.
7 RIR 2 out of 3 eggs under broody bator are alive/developing, 1 RIR 1 Leghorn, tossed the other.
4 out of 5 Leghorn in bator showing veins!
Some of the RIR look porous.
Hard to tell on the Dom eggs because my flashlight batteries are low, But I can see some developing.
Got a better cage for the broody!
Canadachickens Just set 18 Auracana Four silkie eggs - 1 Malpoed DIS, 3 late quitters. 0 hatch.
Venymae @venymae got an update? hope your ok! Salmon Favorelles and 11 shipped Cochin eggs on 1/15. On day 8, only 4 of the Favorelles looked good, but 8 of the Cochins did -- I left them all in the 'bator. I added 10 of my own silkies on 1/23.
gotro17 Shellee lavender Orpington shipped egg issue,Papa's Poultry. Jeff- you rocked it! Not one crack! Thank you!!! We have Bielefelders, Crested CL, BBs Marans and Mottled Lavender Orpingtons, along with some surprises from the rainbow pen! Can't wait!!!5 Marans eggs were cracked
. However, all frizzles and lavender Orpingtons were intact. Vital Farms eggs I got at Target, along with some silkies from our new friend from down the road, @Jessimom ... We are setting tomorrow for a Feb. 6th hatch day. 29 eggs go into lockdown tomorrow!!! Start honing your master Jedi skills of distraction and calm. I don't have a styrofoam carton to put the eggs, needing to be upright, in...but I do have plastic 2/3

Hawk12 have 7 blue/gold partridge brahma chicks in the incubator on day 15. Candled last night and things look pretty good. Air cells might be a little small. I lost 5 from this hatch due to a temp spike on day 3
I emailed the gal I bought them from to let her know my progress and she sent me a dozen more for the cost of shipping. That was very sweet of her to do knowing it wasn't her fault or even the PO but my faulty incubator. I'll be setting those eggs tomorrowDay 15, 7 eggs.
deserteggs22Update on my eggs in the incubator on day 7: all 7 of the eggs have moving babies in them!!! YAY! I will do another update on day 14. @deserteggs22 when is lockdown date?
Mirajane 10 white leghorn eggs, as I've said, my dad will only eat white eggs, so I bought some white eggs for him, so I can hatch them and raise them for him. They were shipped, 5 are good, 5 have detached air cells. Sat out for a full day before being put in incubator. Also put in 11 of our eggs from... @Mirajane when is lockdown date?
Peachickie 4/4 silkies hatched 2/4 mutts hatched Hearing some chirps this mornin, fingers crossed
Auroradream26 I have 27 turkey eggs going on lockdown tomorrow.
macylee 1/19/second week of my first incubation attempt! I have 40 eggs, 3 Swedish Isbars and 5 Cream Legbars, 2 RIR/EE eggs, a few RIR/Golden Comet eggs and the rest are RIR/Black Sex Links. @macylee How is your bator and eggs doing?

Fire Ant Farm I set 16 Cream Legbar eggs yesterday afternoon. Looks like the shipped eggs (Alohas with some Naked Necks in the mix) will come next week, so the tandem hatches will be a week apart. (Brinsea Octagon), and the second one will be set up tonight (R-Com 20). Cream Legbars lock down on February 7. Aloha NNs lock down on February 16 (at least any that make it to lock down). Gently turning those three times a day now.

The mixed bantams hat hatch are going to my neighbors. The show went well. All the birds beat their previous score but, the hens froze on the table. Still a good show and I hope that the one this weekend will go even better. I have been working with the hens moreI had 2 bantam mixes hatch. The neighbor kids are so excited for them. The serama pipper died in the shell. Put some other eggs on lockdown today. And a serama egg is wiggling!

MotorcycleChick MC should have been correcting Sally for weeks. She decided to wait until she locks down tomorrow to tell Sally that she only has 21 eggs now since two were clear, and one (that Sally confirmed) was an early quitter. She also should have pointed out her own coop expansion that wasn't a big deal, so she assumed it was left out because it didn't matter. Nor does the new incubator.
PHAGE 5 dozen eggs for a friend (tolbunt, mottled orps, Swedish flower hen, swedish black hen, BCM, Lav ameraucana, and a bunch of other newer breeds from GFF), 2 dozen gifted "eating eggs" from same friend (yea right like I am gona eat them) 1 dozen Costco "pasture raised" brown eggs 1dozen Vons "pasture raised" brown eggs 2 doz shipped eggs -jubilee orp and lemon cuckoo niederrheimers.

I have 14 more Buff Brahmas and 7 shipped Biefielder/Cream Legbar cross eggs that are set to hatch on the 25th. I have eggs going in to lock down today, but I wasn't planning on going home tonight. Special trip just to move them over. Should be home in time to see them hatch on Friday.
