My second seting conclution
12 where set 10 htched, 83.3% success.
2 had to be assist, one malpo. And one stocked in zipping.
All the another 8 htched alone.
2 egg, amaracaouna eggs didnt hatch in my opinion becous some hot
Spots in my incubator and becaous the are the smallest eggs in the seeting
So they have an high s/v ratio, something that make them more influenceable by themp.and humid.
I think that I need to change the fan position and to hatch more homogenous eggs!

And here they are!

Beautiful chicks!! Great job!!!
 
Well, I just added a bunch more eggs... 13 Salmon Favorelles, and 21 or so of my silkie eggs. Some of these are from the 5 month old buff silkie hen and a buff rooster( that hatched at the same time) who is stuck like glue to her. He even goes into the nest box when she is laying an egg. I was going to crack one open to test for fertility, but what's the fun in that? Since all 3 hens are currently laying eggs in the same box, I'm not sure whose is whose for most of them.

I took out the rest of the Trader joe eggs. They were all infertile. So, my easter HAL is down to 41 eggs. 10 trader Joe eggs removed and 9 of my silkie eggs.

I am going to pick up a dozen backyard mix eggs from a friend this weekend. The last batch of chicks I got from her I got an EE mix that lays army green eggs!

Can I say that I am totally addicted to hatching?
 
What are your plans for him?  Eating, breeding, a pet?  I think Thing 1 would be funny for a pet or breeding.  Eating, I don't think it would matter.  I'd have trouble eating something I named.  
hopefully is a female to breed with my Roman tufted gander.
