my first incubator was a turn x 7, never hatched a thing. then I bought an avey incubator (no brainer- turns automaticly, adds humity automaticly and lets me know when there is a power failure) holds only 24 eggs, no more. very pricey butjust what I needed to get me started and not worry about zero hatches. then I bought a chickubator- holds 3 eggs, uses a lightbulb, $20, and finally bit the bullet and bought the big one that holds, what 100?eggs. I use them all but the turn x which I sold just depends on what I'm doing

Ohhh....

I added that to my Christmas list.

Thank you for such great suggestions.

I had this one on my list, but it's cheaper on that site!

Does anyone plan on hatching out any Marans or Wyandottes this spring ? If you do and would like to sell some, I'd like to buy some

you know I will be. I'm locating hatching eggs right now!! I hope to have black wyandottes and maybe wheaton marans so I can sex the marans early and get roos gone. I'll consider hatching for others if I'm hatching anyway.

You know I absolutely love all of the chickens I have bought from you ! I'll always have room to buy more of your chickies

I'm working on a vanity plate for my car (I can never tell if it's my car or one just like it) so thoughts are FETHRZ or YNDOTT
does either of these look wrong? like they could be mistaken for something else?

 

[superchemicalgirl]

I like them especially the wyandotte! Just don't apply for HEN PCKD. I have it on good knowledge that that one's taken

We did vanity plates last year as a contest for the NYD hatch... I loved incub8

I like YNDOTT. That'd really separate the men from the boys as it were. I like Fethrz too, but YNDOTT is more esoteric, and I trend that way.

Hoppy, If you have RLB Wyandottes (bantam or standard) available in April I know I would love to buy some. Your birds look beautiful in pictures, and you have been very helpful to me and many others here.

I wish I was brave like all of you about incubating, but I just am not cut out for it. I will have fertile Ancona duck eggs once the girls start laying, though with how daunting the incubating process is I am starting to really wonder why.
The more I learn about breeding the less I know. I felt like I knew what I was looking for when I got into it, but the more I find out the more I wonder if I had any clue whatever.
