Ok so here we go, pull up a chair, get a cup of coffee, get comfy and get ready for some :jumpy

At 8:30am to be exact I set 42 eggs for incubation! I am so :weee and nervous already.

I spent an hour sorting eggs gathered from the past week, I went through and checked the most recent eggs for cracks, thin shells, etc. I was up until midnight making sure eveything was ready to go for launch this am.

I was lucky enough to catch Little One (EE) and Safron (Wellie) right after lay, so I marked the eggs. I am hoping they hatch.

I'm going to be living vicariously through you! I've never incubated eggs before (whether through a bator or with a broody) but it's such an interesting process. And who couldn't love the end result with all the new little chickies. Keep us posted, ok?
P.S. What a cool timer you have!

Thanks, your more than welcome to follow along :D. I forgot I had that timer, it was another thrift store find.
