Ok y'all, I am looking for your best incubating advice. My happy butt decided to bid on some CCL eggs on eBay and as of right now I am in the lead with about two hours to go. So just in case I do actually win any advice would be appreciated. Oh, and I didn't plan on it so I would be using my farm innovators incubator again. Would the automatic turner be helpful?

Good morning from Bettsville...not to terribly far from the Toledo area

I know Bettsville! I grew up in Risingsun (the outskirts). Small world! =)

My Navy son is coming home to pick up his kids and take them back to his base in Florida for the summer. I would very much like for my grandchildren to experience chicks hatching. However, my 3 recent incubations have resulted in very few hatchlings, the last one produced zilch. I would like to increase my chances of the kids seeing eggs hatch by buying local hatching eggs, instead of a crapshoot with shipped ebay eggs.

This is what I need ... Ideas on who may have hatching eggs I could pick up. I would be willing to drive within about 2 hours of the Toledo area and would need the hatching eggs the first week of June, so that they could hatch sometime between June 26 and June 29.

To complicate things, I am sort of picky about breeds. I only want ones that I don't already have. I know of Sunny Side Up Micro Farm, but do you know of any others? The closer to Toledo, the better.

Thanks for your help. I really want the grandkids to experience this before they are gone for the summer.

I do! I love them. I have 2 NN mix, a showgirl ( NN/silkie), and a NN in my brooder that I am waiting to see if it frizzles. I hatched the one in my brooder but got the rest from an awesome breeder in Indiana. She is supposed to be sending me a list soon of what she is going to be selling if you want I can let you know if she has any. I'm in liberty township Ohio. I am going to meet with her soon anyway and could pick them up.
