November 2021 Hatch-A-Long

[Muscovy Wunda]

Aww look at the babies! Are some of them bantam dark brahmas like mama? Is that what she is? She is beautiful!

She's a bantam silver penciled wyandotte, and yes some chicks are hers. The others are standard partridge wyandotte and a buff orpington

Thank you for letting me know! I like the color. I don't have experience with bantam wyandottes.

I've only had my bantams for 6 months. I am finding their small bodies pack big personalities. I like the pencil pattern in general so I'm sure I will add more breeds with same pattern eventually

I just got a huge new cabinet incubator that I'm basically planning to fill to capacity over November! First time using an incubator with this kind of capacity or trying a split hatch.

Currently setting Thai/Asil/Ganoi (top rack) and Ayam Cemani (bottom rack). Hatching the 24th/25th.

Adding Jersey Giants and Seramas on Monday/Tuesday.

Did you make the cabinet incubator or buy it?

How many eggs can you fit in it?

Bought it from Hatching Time (definitely the most expensive piece of chicken equipment I've ever bought). Capacity is 120 chicken eggs.

So far I'm really pleased with it! It holds temp and humidity perfectly and has a very gentle turning system. I've been moving my thermometer/hygrometers around in there and haven't found any cool spots. Fingers crossed that my hatch rate improves over my old cheapie 'bator!

I would love a cabinet incubator when I hatch more than now. But sadly I'm on a strict number because dad doesn't want anymore ducks and not too many more chickens. On my to do list when I move out though.
