shipped?

My babies for this week equal 6...2 from my girls a mottled Japanese Bantam, 1 black silkie, 2 lavender frizzle silkies! so precious....
you in the sept hatch?? mine are due starting sept. 11
 
I somehow got messed up and set the eggs yesterday. But I took them out when I realized I was wrong. Then I put them back in today.

400

21 days to go!!!
 
OK, finally moving over here from August :)

Lets see... I have had multiple disaster hatches with all my shipped eggs but good hatches with my personal eggs (well, my own chickens anyway, LOL!) I have been doing staggered hatches using a Farm Innovators Pro 4200 with auto turner and fan for a bator and an LG still air for a hatcher. I have had heartbreak after heartbreak and although seemingly stable temps for the most part I think it may be running low in spite of my best efforts and numerous thermometers and hygrometers. I have ordered Incu-kits to upgrade my bators to the equivalent of a HovaBator Genesis 1588, and also ordered the cords to use battery backups and 12 volt turner motor. I am GOING to get this worked out and stop killing all the rare breed babies I am working so hard to acquire.

Meanwhile in the bator I have a selection of BBS Ameraucana, Partridge Penedesenca, SBEL, Olive Eggers and a Crested Cream Legbar that are on Day 16 in my unreliable bator and almost ready to go into my unreliable hatcher :/ At least none of them were shipped so :fl

Also in the bator on Day 5 are more local eggs including Mille Fleur Leghorns, more Crested Cream Legbars from 2 other flocks, Appenzeller Spitzhaubens, Barthuhners, Swedish Flower Hens, Lavender/Blue Orpingtons, and Blue Isbars.

Shipping to me Monday I have a replacement order of Sweet Potato Quechua and Colloncas eggs and 6 Bielefelders.

And hopefully my local source will soon have some Blue Breda eggs for me since I lost all 18 of the shipped eggs due to malposition :(
