[AgnesGray]

Waves hello to everyone. I am very new to having chickens and I have 9 eggs in the incubator. my hens were not sitting on them so i took them in ran out and got an incubator! well I think i have 9 eggs looking good. I would have more but my incubator only holds 9( using the automatic egg turner) they have been in 4 days! I will be here asking LOTS of questions!

The hatchalongs are fun and a great place to ask questions! Also...

What breed or breeds are you hatching?

My eggs from Alabama came- they don't photo well but the 2 bottom rows are blue and blue green-ish eggs. 2 are white, the one in the middle row to the far left, and one on top and 4 brown eggs. The dads were legbar, or Ameraucana, and the hens were Isbar, and other green egg layers.

I hope to put in 7 of my eggs, below. Frizzle/NN with some Blue CM too.

I wanted to mention, I am going to let them rest one day and get room temp. Then they will go in to a still air incubator with upright hatching cups for 3 days not turned. I will candle and move the attached aircell eggs to a diff incubator with fan and turners. The saddle eggs with moving air cells will stay unmoved until they attatch.
