Incubators :S

[xxkirsty&herchickensxx]

Do you really need an incubator to hach and grow chicks, Or will they hach and grow with a broody hen?

Ps: Happy easter!

You can use a broody if you have one. It's just often more convenient to use the bator because you can set a larger number of eggs and you don't have to wait for its hormones to say it's ok to hatch eggs.

Broody hens are more reliable (in my opinion) than incubators. No temp or humidity fluctuations; no worries about power outages.

Thats good

I'm glad I don't have to go out and buy a £100 Incubator

All the buttons confuse me

All you have to have is a reliable broody.

Which is the problem.
