Okay, this is off topic, but can I lockdown on Day 16? I really want to put the eggs I got today in the bator, but the other eggs are on Day 2.

Yes, it will work fine. Eggs really only need turning the first 2/3 of the cycle. I learned that from an online presentation from a professor of poultry science at the Univ of Arkansas. It was a great presentation, but I didn't save the link and can't find it now.

I recently won an auction for some Ayam Cemani eggs....sure hope they hatch, I only got 6 and the air cells were a bit of a mess when they arrived. The good news is that they came with a dozen mystery eggs, some marked 'orp' some marked 'RB' rhode bar? And some unmarked....hmmmm

cool!!! Love the eggs marked "HMmmmm"...

...like a box of chocolates, never know what your gonna get!

Had given my nephew some eggs and an incubator to watch for an easter hatch. One chick was hatched and the kids were going outside to play. His 7yo didn't want the chick to be lonely, so he put a friend next to the incubator to keep it company.

My kids and I are waiting anxiously the arrival of our baby chicks. They left Polk Ohio yesterday and we are tracking them as the a move closer to central Pennsylvania. The brooder is set up and warm. The post office said the get 2 express shipments per day morning and afternoon. Expecting them this afternoon barring any problems. Hoping for no mortalities. Kids are soo excited.

good luck!!

...the kids are going to have so much fun!!

I'm in Canton. If your profile is correct, we are about fifteen minutes apart. I leave in the morning. I'm here because I was sitting at home, crying all day and night since February. Losing my husband is gonna kill me.

with Todd away, we could have a sleep over...just us girls!
