Of the 20 that did not make it 16 were clears. 2 had the ring of death. 2 were cracked one by me when I dropped upon being startled and one we found cracked in the bator

I think I set 34 MFL eggs.... 32 Made it to lockdown and when I left 26 had hatched and 1-2 more were pipped and all but 2 were internally pipped.

Now to keep them alive. I think they will live with silkies a LONG LONG TIME.

I also had my first hatch from a project pen and they are ALL CHIPMUNK STRIPED

just took 3 crosses to get it back! LOL I think a couple of more just for improvement. Now should I share eggs or not?????

What breed are you going for?

I am about to set my 3rd clutch of eggs and have bought not just one but two incubators. I found that my Brinsea is far more reliable and consistent in temps than the GQF. Both have turners. I have hatched lavender orpingtons, crested cream legbars and cooper marans. The second hatch was polish and a deal on breda eggs on ebay. All 9 breda eggs hatched but one chick died suddenly today

. I have a small set of barnvelders to set tomorrow. My Silkie is sick and I had thought that this was my last hatch but now I think I want to set some Silkies. I really have to stop because my town only allows 6 hens and I may be 3xs the threshold when I am done. Please help me!!!

I didn't cross breeds just colors, Partridge Rocks....... BLUE partridge Rocks. Should be about half and half. The roo is Blue Partridge and the pullets are Horstman Partridge Rocks. Should be nice type on them.



These are MFL

Oh, those will be pretty, but I don't want any. I was hoping just maybe by some miracle you were trying for Salmon Marans and you would offer to send me some eggs.
