~May 18th Hatchers Post Here~

[The Wolf Queen]

I set 12 scovy eggs to hatch the 18th. Who else is going to set eggs to hatch around those days?
The muscovy eggs are the large ones in the back. The others are some silkies I have due the 3rd and 4th. Heres the link for that hatching thread https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/post.php?action=post&fid=5

. I alway have trouble with these guys. Sheesh! Well hopefully at least 5 of these guys will make it to lockdown. Anyone else have a hatch around this time?

Mine due 18th/19th. Set them at 01:30 am so actually due very early hours of 19th.

24 eggs, one candled out as infertile, 1 quitter yesterday, 1 suspect, will check again tonight. All others spinning around like tops!

Have incy at 101F as I can't keep the temp down, will they hatch early this way? Am worried about not locking down early enough.

Have window open in room with incy, and keeping room cool anyway. Humidity stable at around 40-45%

I have 6 fertile eggs under a broody that should hatch around the 22nd or 23rd. This is our first foray into using a broody. We had great success last spring with a borrowed incubator, 9/10.
