Michigan Hatchers! What'cha got cookin?

[gladahmae]

I think we still have some Sapphires left which are Cream legbar boy over white leghorn hens though. Our first ones. I hear they lay abundant nice large blue tint eggs  

I am STILL trying to find a ccl or am rooster so I can hatch these too. I live too far north and driving 2+ hours for a rooster just isn't going to happen.

are you going to attend chickenstock june 11th?
i could probably locate one by then & bring it to you there

 

[gladahmae]

I'm not. There are a few cl listings for them....but chicks and I was hoping for a juvenile.

 

[iamfivewire]

maybe if someone nearby is attending & could transport it back?

 

[gladahmae]

It's a mild possibility. Not stressing too much over it yet since my leghorns are only 2mo old. Someone near my dad's hunting property has them, and I expect we will be putting in food plots in next month so I might be able to get one then....

Oh no....that's terrible news, after you set all those eggs?

I initially set them in a styrofoam incubator thinking by day 7 I would transfer into my new one. Nope....

I'm on day 13 for hatching out some Swedish Flower Hens. I'll be taking them to this Swap Meet in Rockford, MI. I may have some extras available afterwards if anyone is interested. Also have SFH hatching eggs, too.

Great news. The people at Rite Farms sent me a new controller and after wiring it up the incubator is working like a charm. So far so good, pretty much hands off, just add water to the humidity controller, it has a seperate heating element that turns on when humidity is low and an exhaust fan when it or the temp is too high. Working perfectly.
