Hi everyone! Haven't been on in awhile. So I got my incubator I put 21 eggs in and I ended up with one, just one egg that was fertile! It is due to hatch next week. A very nice lady that lives close to me gave me some cochin and silkie eggs. So I have them in the incubator also. So here is my question. My egg goes into lockdown on Sunday. I only have one incubator. The other eggs will only be on day 6 when the other one is to go into lockdown. I can take the one rack off of the turner, so that egg isn't in the turner, would that work? I could take the whole turner out, but can't open it to manually turn those eggs. Any advice would be of great help. And also what would you do with the humidity? I know it needs to be higher at hatch time. Thanks and I hope this isn't to long.

Take off the one rack. Raise the humidity for the egg hatching.

Long story, but she rescued me!

Fawngrovechad had posted her on here. She came out of a kill shelter down south. She was hours away from euthanasia, scared and filled with parasites.
His wife was (is?) working with a rescue group.

Wow! She's cute.

I'm hoping to end a streak of absolutely TERRIBLE hatches.... unfortunately I have a group that is supposed to hatch tomorrow. There was no movement from the eggs I could see into at lockdown. BUT.....I got an OE out and chirping today....I am praying that this lil blue baby doesn't end up being a singleton.

Had an excruciating day yesterday. Made some mistakes I'm going to be paying for for a while... arrrgh! I need a babysitter.

Just a heads up, the Lebanon Valley Poultry Fanciers meeting will be on 03/27/14. It was scheduled for this Thursday 03/13/14. We are planning our fall show. It doesn't matter where you live, this is just not for Lebanon County. Please join us!!!!

Exactly. I am in Chester County and go to every meeting! Love it. Can't wait for the show. Guys, we could REALLY use some help with raffle donations to raise money for the club at the show. This is our inaugural show and very first year as a club. We'd like to have some cool things on the raffle table. Keep in mind that the show isn't until Oct. 11th, so there is time. Is there anyone that would be willing to make a few feed bags into totes for the raffle table? I can donate thread and feed bags if need, just need your sewing skills as I am hopeless with a needle. We can that week, also take hatching eggs for a raffle item if anyone wants to donate. I am doing this. There will also be a Chinese Raffle at the show of breeding pairs. I am going to donate a pair to the auction, not sure what breed yet. This is a fall show, so at that point anyone looking to cut down on birds before winter, please consider donating a pair to the raffle. I will do any running around needed at that point to pick up birds/eggs/whatever. PLEASE help if you can, we want to make this a show to remember. Also, please come and just hang out and check out all the cool breeds of chickens. We'd love to have you. It should/could be a large show, maybe 1000-1200 birds if we are lucky. I believe the club president said this is going to be the ABA District Meet too. October 11th, Lebanon County Fairgrounds.
