Hooolyyy moley it's been a little bit. Good thing I didn't miss too much. Hello to our new person from me here in Berks County! @LeBlackbird also says hi since she's sitting right next to me as I type this.
So I managed to actually get a steal and a half yesterday. I bought a Brinsea Octagon 20 with a dozen of hatching eggs for $200! And the hatching eggs are 5 Black Copper Marans and the rest Bielfelders. These eggs are huge and beautiful! So if anyone wants any extras please let me know (the Marans I'm gonna keep unless I get a roo).
I'm down a few birds so hopefully the giant amount of chicks Susan's getting will help with that, lord knows there's gonna be a bunch more Ameraucanas. (Of course lol). I'll try to keep you guys posted on this hatch along, I'm super excited!
I’d be willing to trade for some full grown layers instead of money too, if you’d like. I love those BCM too.
Put 191 eggs into lockdown tonight. 71 Cream Legbars. The hatch percentage has not been great on these, I hope it picks up, I'm having trouble keeping up with demand for Legbars.
The first 2 Australian Spotted duck eggs were infertile. I set 22 more last Saturday. It's hard to wait until Fri to candle them. I swapped out the drake anyway, just in case. The 5 females are laying 3 - 4 eggs a day now. They are surprisingly large. I really want some of these to hatch
I got the biel and bcm eggs from the same guy I bought the incubator from. His name is Steve and he's actually in Bucks. There's the Bucks County poultry group on facebook that I joined and that's where I found him.Awesome deal! Where did you get those Biele eggs from? I’d sure love maybe a couple of girls from another line, to add to mine. I only got two females from my hatch.
