I just got a used hovabator from my uncle and I'm DYING to set some eggs!!! I have to wait though... I'm hoping to set on Feb. 6th. For my first hatch I'm planning on setting my own backyard eggs. I have 6 RSL, 1 EE, 1RIR and 1 Delaware hens and they are all in with my RSL roo. I think I'm going to set a dozen total with as many blue EE eggs as I can gather. First ?, any suggestions as what I should do with my new 'bator to get everything ready? and second, anyone have an idea of what the EE eggs should come out as? I would like for them to be olive egg layers, but not sure if that is going to happen??? I can't seem to be able to figure out this chicken genetics!!
Thanks for any and all info!!
