October-hatch-along 2019

[Muscovy Wunda]

Hey all! So I can't believe no ones started this thread yet so I thought I would! I know the northern hemispheres heading into Autumn/fall/winter so things are getting quiter on the hatch front, but there's surely plenty of us southerners heading into spring to hatch!

 

[Muscovy Wunda]

Okay, me first! Second full incubation hatch ever for me. This time I have home laid white and blue pied muscovy eggs, set 22/09/19 so should hatch approx 27/10/19

I am doing my first ever hatch!
I purchased 2 dozen containing Rhode Island Red, Sussex, Leghorn, Australorp, Plymouth rock and red sex-links.
They were set 09/09/19 so if I have my math right, hatch 10/10/19

Welcome @AusHen! Chicken eggs take about 21ish days, so yours should be hatching around 01/10/19. Plymouth rocks are the prettiest chickens, I'm hoping to get one off my neighbour

Currently hatching. So I will have a late October hatch pending I get enough eggs to fill it. Several hens are also hatching chicks so they aren't laying an that doesn't help my situation.

I will resist, stop twisting my arm I cant do it. No more chicks. NOOOO!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE STOP DON'T MAKE ME DO IT.

Arr very good, I thought I confused you with my dates sorry! Broody hens are the story of my life right now. I brought Australorps for their non broodiness and egg laying ability. Apparently they missed the memo .
@Mvan42 follow along for the ride and live through our hatches! I totally understand the addiction to it. Could use an experienced hatcher in this thread

I am hours away from signing on to this! I have an incubator to clean first.

Incubator set! 8 Ayam Cemani, 8 Dominiques, 4 Dark Egg Projects (Production Red type of birds selectively bred for dark eggs, long time project of mine) 18 Naked Neck Project birds, 5 Serama. On the side 8 Silver Leghorns, I keep side eggs that I turn myself to replace eggs in the turner as they die.
----------------------
There is a chance that some of the dark brown eggs may be from my Cuckoo Maran but her eggs are not always as dark so I do a good job of weeding hers out, but if one of those are her eggs it will be a Black Sex Link.
