For everyone about to lockdown, here are some pics to look forward to, today's hatch of 45% on shipped eggs. (not from the swap).


 
I have lockdown TOMORROWWW! and Monday! The turkeys all look like they made it, I have about 1/3 of the other eggs that will go, I had bad chicken luck this month. You people better tell me what I have!

I shoveled all the eggs into 2 incubator today and changed my hatcher. DH is unhappy with the humidity control on one of the bators and wants to use it as a hatcher instead because I watch the humidity in there like a hawk. I've been searching for a cabinet incubator, but so far I keep missing them! I was 10 min late on a brinsea 380, was soo bummed!

All my silkies have decided to go broody along Whit miss Dolly the Orphington bully. So that's three broodies waiting for chicks. And 3 still sitting on their chicks. CHICKENS< YOUR JOB IS TO LAY EGGS!

candled the next batch and will lockdown on sunday, this batch still has 10 swap eggs in. the ones in the picture started out with 35 eggs and I ended up with
1 serama
1 ancona roo/barred cochin
2 jersey giant
2 ameraucana roo/ee hen
1 project rumpie
2blue/splash cochin
3 blue cochin bantam
1 buff orpington
1 polish ( this was all that was marked on the egg)




Since these were all e bay eggs, it wasn't to bad of a hatch....but I am not sure of some of those breeds, I can only go by how it was marked cause i am really bad at identifying breeds.
