So. I've decided to buy an incubator and hatch my own eggs. Gamora's eggs. They are a beautiful deep green color and she is my Olive Egger, but no issues with laying (like a couple of my EEs do with their softshell nonsense and calcium deposits). And I don't like the personalities of my Wyandottes or my Ayam Cemani mixes.

Guess it's time to buy an incubator

Might as well hatch from the best layer, you’ll have better possibilities in getting great results.
What breed variety of rooster are you using?

First, just a disclaimer, I am interested in getting dark green/unique eggs and don't plan on breeding chicks for sale, unless someone is specifically looking for barnyard mix flocks. My hens aren't show quality or purebred. They are all barnyard flock, which I believe have higher disease resistance.

My rooster is an Ayam Cemani x Australorp mix. He has a ton of leakage, but I really think it's so pretty.
