September Hatch-a-long!

[Elsveta641]

I have a few naughty ones hatching early right now! Didn't even get the turner out yet. But they're strong and healthy. Good to see I'm not the only one with fall baby fever

Congrats! No, you are not the only one, lol. There is an October hatch-along thread, and my Incubators Anonymous thread for September is still active with October batches. And I have another dozen eggs coming sometime in the next week or two.

Are you going to hatch some out, then? I was planning to put my incubator away after my next hatch that's due on Tuesday (NN/Breese mixes).

Here's my Breese babies (the white ones) compared to my tiny quail babies lol. These quail are for a friend as well, I'm done with quail. Replacing mine with Serama, if I can get the little buggers to hatch that is

Nice! It's starting to thunder here now, so I have to start keeping a close eye on the incubator in case the electric goes out.

When I've had power go out, I put socks full of rice in the incubator to keep the temp up. Id fill 2 socks with uncooked rice and microwave one for like 1min and put it in. When the temp started droppling I'd swap it for the other one. I put my winter coat on the incubator for insulation too .Pain in the butt, works though!
