january hatch-a-long

[Compost King]

I'll join. I'm hatching every week from now until April/May.

@Compost King good to see you again.

If I ever get a 2nd Incubator (hatcher) I will be staggering weekly hatches.

I'm in just set 9 cemani eggs due jan 7! Can't wait to see everyone's hatches. My last ones are like 5 weeks now growing fast!

I look forward to seeing any pictures if you take any.

@Compost King I will definitely post some pics when it happens. These are locally bred and picked up in person eggs so hopefully they will be successful.

My last December hatch goes into the hatcher on Friday and thus ends the December hatches.

I’ll be replacing them with Black a Australorp, Lakenvelder, Silver Spangled Hamburgs, Dutch Bantam, and If they arrive in time Silkies.

Clean up from the December hatch is complete, the incubator is warming up, January hatch is just hours away from starting. Cuckoo Marans, Silver Grey Dorkings, and Silver Grey Dorking x Red Rangers. The count for each breed is still to be determined as inspection will take place between now and when the Incubator temps reach 99 (its at 60 right now)
