you know I have a feeling this is not an incubation issue
those look fine except they DIS I am wondering if not a flock nutrition issue or something? worming or meds previous?

Good to know that the incubator is good. I wormed them back in November I believe. I feed them a 50/50 mix of layer and gamebird grower. They seem to eat the layer better if I mix it with the grower. It boosts the protein to 19%. Thanks for the links..
 
Here they are! I'm calibrating my new hygrometers, so they're still resting and waiting to go into the incubator. Thats a large OE egg for size comparison

Hi @Sally Sunshine Hi everyone!

Thanks for checking on me lol.
We just finished some remodeling here (kitchen and our girls' room) so I haven't had much time to stay caught up but I should be able to stop by more often now :)
That wasn't my chick in that pic, Sally but I ended up hatching constantly since the NYHAL. Yes, I am clearly an addict lol.
I had 9 from the hatch a long, then I got 6 Isa Browns (they're 5 weeks) and hatched another group of 13 Marans and Cochins who are about 4 weeks old. I have 6 males listed in the byc for sale & free sections to see if there are any takers...otherwise we will process them. We are butchering our first 2 roosters next weekend. Kinda nervous but we feel it's something it's time we learn to do. We have an experienced helper coming over to give us some guidance so that should be a big help.

I'm not joining the Easter hatch a long this year

Ive got 4 different groups of youngsters in various stages and ages and I won't have room for any more chicks for another month. My husband is starting building a bantam coop this weekend (yay!!) I will definitely be putting eggs in the bator in about 2 or 3 weeks. I'm really excited to see those babies since they are my own Marans stock. I also am awaiting a call back from the Ohio NPIP tester so I'll be going through that process for certification sometime this spring.

Can't wait to read back a little and catch up and see what everyone is up to!
oh Two at one time!! I am sure they are lovely!! how much of a kitchen remodel?
addiction at its best!! lol you can always sell chicks on CL remember!! lmao!! Mike and I started a april HAL was hoping you would join us dang!!!!
