Mahonri's 3rd Annual, BYC Easter Hatch-a-long!

Awesome! I was wondering what would be an easy way to separate a few of mine come lockdown too. Great idea - did you submit it for the contest?

I may, the idea of making one wasn't my idea. I originally pictured it out of hardware cloth, but I was too lazy to get out the wire cutters and J-clip pliers (I've built hundreds of rabbit cages). I decided it was easier to sit at the dining room table with plastic canvas and a pair of scissors.

So I'll probably submit it, it worked well.

Thanks,
Deb
 
They were good but I am so full. Gotta lay down. I am tired after the big SET. Whew, six crested cream legbar eggs and one cracked and waxed Isbar egg.

I'm headed to bed for the night, too. I am stuffed and so tired.

That's it???? SEVEN eggs? You are gonna have to add more!
 
Ok, I finally have them all and I need to pm Laree with the new number. I'm now holding at 67 eggs. I was originally on supposed to set 24 of my own eggs and 24 of my neighbor's. I'd finish this post, but I'm going fishing.... again.


how do you turn your eggs in the carton.
 
ok here is my egg count, I can't get BYC to post my pics up for eggs. I set 49 turkey eggs last sat to hatch with the chicks. I looked at the turkey eggs today and I'm down to 32 eggs................ 4 EE eggs, 10 black java eggs, 6 buff orps eggs, 5 small splash cochin eggs, 14 buff orps or javas eggs from room # 1, 34 salmon faverolle eggs, 21 splash cochin/salmon faverolle eggs, 12 mystery full size eggs and 10 mystery small eggs. all together I have 148 EGGS!!!!!!!!!!

I haven't posted a pic or list yet since I have one more box of eggs I'm expecting on Monday. I'll post pics of those I've already set and the late ones when I get them ready for the incubator.....and then I'll know how many eggs I'm setting. I know this much.......I set 28 last year for this hatch.....I'll be setting more than twice that this year!!

Good night!
