May hatch-a-long

[treslilbirds]

I love the way your can see everything in you incubator

I love this incubator. It was so user friendly! It’s the Janoel12 or Magicfly12 I believe isnthe other name. I got it for right around $50 w/free shipping on eBay.

Everyone's getting an early start on May, apparently! I have another batch of eggs being shipped to me... they haven't even been mailed yet. So I figure I've got a full month to wait before they'll be hatching.

Being born is tough work! She’s already standing up, stretching her little wings and running around like a quarterback!

*whew!*

All that hard work deserves a nap

Oh and I predict the Leghorn’s egg will hatch next! Fingers crossed for a super blue egg layer

They’re still rocking. This has still gone by much more quicker than I anticipated. I was prepared to have to wait up to 12-24 hours for her to come out. But she had pipped externally at 7am when my husband woke up. I got up at 8 and saw that big hole. Hubby ran and grabbed some drive thru breakfast so I could watch ‘Bator-vision and by the time he got back (less than 30min) she was out!!

Im shining a flashlight in every few minutes checking for more pips....waiting patiently

Lol! It depends actually. I was able to fit 6 of my hens eggs in the auto turner tray. They were Leghorn, RIR, and Golden Comet so on the bigger side. I’ve seen people on YouTube fit up to 20 in without the auto turning tray. They just had to turn by hand. It’s pretty nice, the auto tray

Had to leave the house and go do grown up stuff. Ugh.

I’ll update when I see what I come home to.

Hello everyone. I've got 38 eggs that went in last Friday. They are from my own chickens. The chicks will be true barnyard mixes. Hens are BBS Marans, Gold Sexlinks, Easter Eggers, and two types of bantams. Roosters are Barred rock and Black Copper Marans.

They are on day 3 and a quick candling reveals almost all are fertile! Hoping for a good hatch since it's for my daughter's girl scout troop. They'll be monitoring their progress weekly and coming over to watch them hatch. The pics are of an egg I'm taking candling daily for the troop to see development.
