I forgot what your hatch rate was and what incubator you used? I am thinking of buying a better quality one.

I forgot what your hatch rate was and what incubator you used? I am thinking of buying a better quality one.

I started with 12 eggs. 3 ended up being duds, 1 was a quitter, so that left me with 8 eggs.

Out of those eggs 7 chicks hatched, the 8th chick was badly malpositioned, & died.

I'm using an incuview incubator.

They're Wheaten, different colors of Wheaten, but Wheaten has the auto sexing type coloration with females being brown, & males being black, or blue.

My lacy roundhead come all yellow or yellow with faint striping and they're male and female
The cock is BBR
hens are wheaton

You cant tell at all till they start feathering out
