I don't think the BLRW I hatched is laying yet. She seems so skinny still.

Got my entry in, I only did one for all of them. It was easier since I have 8 different set dates

Set dates: 16, 19, 23, 25, 28, 1, 2, and 4

I'll have a 4-day 'lull' in hatching between the 11th and 15th then again between the 25th and 29th...the rest are pretty close together

Hatch dates: 7, 9, 11, 15, 16, 17, 17, 18, 19, 19, 20, 21, 21, 22, 25, 29, 29, 30, and June 1st.....so far anyway

ETA: I forgot about my broodies, I'll do another for them.

I'm going to do another form for my broodies, I forgot about those. I said I had 4 but that was just chickens, I have 3 broody ducks too

Oh yeah, I'll be doing another cause I have to steal some eggs from the gooses' nest. Plus my son found a nest of 11 guinea eggs so I need to steal some of those too

I'm making a cabinet bator but it's not done yet. These are all going in my 1588...poor thing! Did anyone see my thread?

This is what happens when you take the turner out of your incubator!

Checking in if y'all will have me again.

I've already screwed up though, I filled out the form twice (I have 2 broodies right now so filling it out twice wasn't my big mistake) and I don't know why I thought 05.24 was 05.01... lets just say I was on call last night, yay me. Could someone please fix my dates?

Oh and I'm pretty sure I'm getting eggs in the mail next week, too... if so I promise to double check my form before hitting accept and not to do it post-call.

I looked on the spreadsheet of who's hatching what and noticed a few people listed chickens set in MARCH?

The post office must be incubating them for it to take till May to hatch...

Hi all I'm here too!

Candled last night and have 11 survivors in the 'bator.

These had the power off for ~16 hours so I'm very happy with 11. Due 18th - 19th.

Guess I need to set some more eggs now.

So many, so close together... What's your 'bator set up?

EDIT: Scratch that, going to check out your thread.
