Mahonri's 2nd Annual BYC EASTER HATCH. Post pics of your chicks!

[Illia]

Hah!!

Just when I thought I'd have enough eggs to hatch for Easter, it looks like I'll be entirely sold out of eggs, and have, umm, . . . . A couple Olive Eggers to set!

Have no clue how many eggs I'll be setting but I estimate about, . . . 6. The reason in this besides a shortage of eggs (I'm selling a LOT lately) is also because I've got chicks due 2 weeks before and 1 week before, so whatever hatches out, they'll have some buddies.

I have the opposite issue. I have 5 ducks eggs in the bator that is going to have to share space with 24 lav ameraucana eggs. And my bator holds 24 eggs. I need to get creative here real quick.

My silkie EVER hatched today!!! Two more pips too.

Any suggestions for stacking in the Brinsea. I am NOT going to waste these ameraucana eggs!!!!

some folks use wax paper to hold them in place... and it seems to have worked.. I just place mine on top and none have broken yet.
The ones close to the humidity paper do OK too.

If I stack them like that, will they hit the top and does that matter?

If I have to, I am sticking the ducks in my bra and sleeping sitting up. I am not going waste the ameraucana eggs. They were too expensive.

question my hen set on egg for i know 6 hours today but when she got up we cleaned her box but she never went back. she growled squaked and tryed to peck us even her poop was as big as a tennis ball. do i need to throw the eggs away? is she going broody? if so how long will it take for her to sit on eggs all day instead of a dew hours?
