What's on the menu?
I have a very large, good natured, RIR rooster and the following hens:
-Welsummer - lays very large spotted dark brown eggs - ~6 a week
-Pearl White Leghorn - lays huge white eggs almost every day - 6 to 7 a week
-Barred rock - consistant large light brown layer - ~6 a week
-Dominique - not laying yet
-RIR - great layer - will produce pure bread RIR's - ~6 a week
-Golden Laced Wyandotte - consistent brown egg layer - ~6 a week
-Ameraucana - (currently not laying - we will probably have chicks from her in the spring - but beautiful blue eggs)
-Buff Brahma - Not laying yet

The first batch I'm hatching will be 4 of the Welsummer eggs and 4 of the White Leghorn. I want to keep it narrow so I can know what hens produce what chicks. Hopefully I'll get at least one hen from each. My hope is to get the spotted eggs from the Welsummer offspring and the production from the leghorn. Tough part with this is it will be 7 months before I know.

I'd appreciate any tips as to what I would get with the above mixes. For example - will my leghorn give me Red Sex Links? I figure I'll find out in 3 weeks either way.
 
I'VE GOT CHICKEN EGGS!!!!! Eggs shipped out on Saturday the 26th, I received them on Monday the 28th. No damage to any of them. Won a dozen eggs and they sent 16 (14 Dominiques and 2 Black Copper Marans). They are currently resting and will go into the bator tomorrow.
Very very nice. Good luck with!!!

Nice!!!!
 
Darn, I was hoping someone had one like mine so I could verify that I installed the white air fins correctly.

Which one do you have?  Search the entire incubating forum for R-com.  I found several threads about specific models.  I was able to find threads about my Little Giants.  Good luck!!


I have the 20 Max. Searching the forum is a good idea... I was being lazy. :hide

Just joining this thread - We got an incubator for Christmas and have our first eggs 'cooking'.  I look forward to learning from this group.


Welcome! What kind of eggs are you hatching?
