Hi!

I've always wanted to try hatching my own chicks, so Dad surprised me with an incubator this spring! I am so excited to learn and attempt to use it. but I have one big question left- how many eggs do I need to hatch? This incubator has spots for 41 eggs, and I was thinking to add only a few babies this year. Is it okay to only put in a dozen eggs? Will that throw off the temperature regulation?

Thanks!

welcome!! @islandgal

Afternoon folks. Congrats to those with babies hatching! Always cool beans when that happens.

I'm shopping around for a dinner service and glassware. Found out that I can get a 24-piece dinnerware set (includes dinner and salad plates, saucers, coffee cups, and bowls), a 6-piece water glass set, and a 6-piece juice glass set for only 28.74 EUR at IKEA. God bless Swedes.


Today was bright and sunshiney despite rain in the first half of the morning. Birds seem to be enjoying the nice weather, I hope it means more than an egg every two days.
