Well, I just walked in the shop and have a hatcher hitting like popcorn. A day early. These are out of our mixed pen and the ones that I caught the cabinet incubator t-stat messing up. All but 2 eggs are pipped, zipping or hatched. If I hatch all that is in there now, it will be a 90% hatch rate. I had 100% fertility only had a handful of quitters early. Next big hatch is Wednesday and these are out of my breeding pens. Barred Rocks, Australorps, EE's, and Rhode Island Reds. Next Tuesday is Silkies. Then I think I will take a break until the first week in January.
