I'm setting 21 eggs from my backyard flock in my modified toaster oven incubator I have successfully hatched eggs in this incubator before my last run had about a 50% hatch rate with several fully developed chicks dead in the shell I have made some improvements to the incubator and plan to run it at a lower humidity this round in hopes of improving the hatch rate.

To keep with the oven theme all eggs have been marked with a number. These numbers will correspond to an egg or chicken food item in the menu below. Please feel free to place your order and cheer on any of these eggs.

The Sire should be my Black Copper Marans Cockerel Axl. There is a small chance that some of these eggs were fertilized by my leghorn mix rooster that the had been with the girls few weeks prior so if any hatch out white his contributions might still be in play

I've got 7 in the Bator from my girl Betty, also. So it'll be like a 'sista' hatch... 🤣
Nice, I hope your hatch goes well. I know you have committed on Blue a few times, she is not only a good looking bird she one of my best layers. I collected these eggs over 7 days and Blue laid 6 eggs. The only one that beat her was the Barred rock who went 7/7.
