Besides you was sayin you needed a new incubator but was worried about the electric bill. Them silkies run on auto and dont use any electric

I had one silkie that "helped" hatch 2 other hens eggs before I finally took pity on her and gave her some eggs to hatch herself. The poor girl was broody for over 2.5 months lol If only they were bigger so I could stuff more eggs under them!
 
If anyone is interested in knowing... I went to Tractor Supply this evening to buy a heat lamp bulb & thermometer for my new turkey and I found a sale on a box of 2 heat lamp bulbs for only $8.00. The name brand is JOBSMART. There was only 1 box left, so I bought it. Wish they had more. Not a bad price for 2 heat lamp bulbs. I usually pay $10.00 for 1 heat lamp bulb.
 
Quick update here-- as of right now, I've had 12 out of 14 SHIPPED EGGS hatched!!! it has been an intense 24 hours & I'm heading to get some sleep -- I have NEVER seen anything like this before w/shipped eggs! -- the last egg does have a live chick peeping inside so hopefully it'll hatch tonight-- & I had one hatch that died soon after -- it had something wrong you could tell-- these are the Rhode Island Reds & they are the healthiest, liveliest, most energetic chicks-- I did not even have to show them the food & water -- they figured it out themselves--

gosh, I feel like I've lived 2 full days in this Friday -- it's been that intense -- but all mostly good - hope you all have a good night, I have got to go get some sleep! and hopefully figure out how to post pics tomorrow--

is there anything better than hearing the sound of happy newly hatched chicks in the background?

Chris, thank you again for sending these eggs. I think I have a new favorite breed here!
I will "pass it forward". You did a greater favor than you know & I will gift somebody else down the road!

gosh, I feel like I've lived 2 full days in this Friday -- it's been that intense -- but all mostly good - my Winnie made it through her dental surgery altho they had to extract two teeth from her, now our darling girl is a "snaggle-tooth" but that's OK, she's still as cute as ever --
hope you all have a good night, I have got to go get some sleep! and hopefully figure out how to post pics tomorrow of these beautiful strawberry-blonde chicklets..

I'm so sorry for the multiple posts & wish I knew how to prevent that from happening-- I will not post anymore on the weekends here on the home computer -- I still can only see 1/2 of the screen here at home & obviously, can't make it work the way it use to----at work I have a much newer computer.
We hopefully will upgrade here at home in the next month or so.

anyway, again, my apologies!
