About three months but she started laying like three weeks ago and then went broody.

Anybody else use a brinsea? I feel like eggs are so crowded in there and having a hard time moving around to zip. And then when they finally do hatch, they get their heads stuck in the egg separaters. What am I doing wrong? I've always used a separate Lg for a hatcher.

I see so much hatching action on this thread! Way to go everyone. All the pictures of chicks are so cute!! Can't wait to see the rest.

Here are some picture of the chicks that hatched out between Saturday and Mother's day (yes, I'm slow getting around to posting pictures...sorry!):

A couple hatching pictures:

And some of them at 3-4 days old. Each barrel had 12 in it, but I didn't take a picture of all 24 at once:

They are so cute and our family is having lots of fun with these little tinies.

I hope they hatch sooooon for you and aren't sneaky night time hatchers!!

All but my heritage RIR eggs (which are Jersey Giant size so I think they need more time) are in lockdown! Moved them to the hatcher, did a quick candle of the eggs due tomorrow and huzzah we have internal pips! Here's hoping everything goes well

I have 3 different incubators running right now. The Brinsea mini and Genesis #1 are locked down, and Genesis #2 has the RIRs still cooking and I think I'll hatch them in there so that I don't have to open #1. It's gonna be an exhausting weekend O_O

In the meantime, my d'Anver chicks are too cute for words. Tiny, brave, and outgoing little things! I find them hopping around the cage and flapping their tiny wings already at almost a week old
