12 isbars, 4 bieles, 4 niederrheiner, 4 merlerault, and 11 of my own. Terri, that darkest one is from the BCM pullet! She just started this week. And the blue in the top row is from Georgette's daughter.

I finally got my eggs set last night! Don't fuss, Mrs. Pam. I didn't realize that my cruise was in the middle of incubation!

If I had set them Wednesday, then I would have gotten back on day 18. So I waited one more day, so I can be back on day 17.

Everything is a calculated risk at this point. I have a turner and a baby sitter, so hopefully she can check once a day and it won't need anything. She's going to watch the rest of the farm for us, plus my kids.

How's everyone liking this cooler weather?

As I am still new to chicken raising, I want to know what does a week old fertilized egg look like if you were to break it to eat? I cracked three eggs today that had blood and a large spot and some thready material. the yolk was very watery and the white was cloudy. are these eggs good? there was no smell at all, just like a good fresh egg.
