Hello everyone I just received my shipped eggs and am excited to put them in the incubator. Here are my eggs.

I'm about to set 30 eggs in my new incubator wifey got me for Christmas. I started it up a couple days ago to make sure the temps would stabilize. My humidity is a little low now but I know once I add the eggs it will change. I think i'll set them tonight. The eggs arrived yesterday and i've been letting them settle. I ordered a few Black Copper Marans from another breeder and I'm setting some of my own Black Copper marans also. I'll probably throw a few of my Welsummer eggs in there as well. Looking for a few new layers to add to the flock and maybe a good back up rooster or two.

How much longer do I wait? One more day? Two more days?

I would have pipped them by now. But that's me.

Love your Avatar!

I also received more eggs today..EE's. I am wanting a white EE out there so bad. I have been buying from those that have photos of whites, and I'm also getting more OE's .. on their way the first of next week.

Agreed, but I didn't want to suggest that and then the poster doing it and others saying he/she shouldn't have done that...I'm in no way an expert on incubation and I lost several eggs last hatch due to inexperience and only by luck didn't lose more

Blue Laced Red Wyandottes

Very nice. BLRW are such lovely chickens. I have been eyeing them for awhile but unfortunately have no need for them in any of my pens.

Is it odd that silver laced Wyandottes seem to be awful, but everyone says BLRW are such nice birds? I honestly hate my SLW, they're mean to the other birds and are just all around awful.
