Good luck and happy hatching with the new bator! DH and I have had the bator bug the past couple months. We're going to be starting ours again in the next couple of days.

OOHH!!! I so want to get started. Really, really don't want to grow them in the basement. Way too much snow out there now. Besides, my pullets and cockerels won't be a year old till April/May. The breeder also recommended waiting till they are a year old. So I will try to be PATIENT!!​

Anybody getting snow tonight/tomorrow?

Luckly, were supposed to get all rain.

So much better than snow. Im ready for spring and green grass.

We're supposed to get some tomorrow am. Buuuuuttttttt, me and DW are going to leave today for Alabama.

to see the grandkids.

Got one more pen to clean before we leave. Hope DD takes good care of her charges.

Hope ya'll survive a few more days of snow.

I believe there is a chart on one of the pages...4 is small and goes up from there...I don't know the bands with numbers..I used the colored spring ones and go from there. Good luck. I am sure someone else will know.
