Newbie here

Good afternoon, my husband and I moved 9.88 acres just north of Thorndale Texas last year. I am beginning to acquire my flock of chickens, I have a Nurture Right 360 incubator with 17 fertilized eggs in it. I am on day 6 of incubation. I am so excited. I also plan to pick up a few live chicks from a hatchery here in Austin in the next day or so.

I have a nurture right 360 as well! It is awesome and affordable. The only thing to worry about is don’t fill up the two plugs with much water, and put paper towels on the bottom to up the humidity. Good luck hatching!
