I just set my first batch of eggs in my home made incubator.
I have 7 Blue Ameracauna and 7 Black Ameracauna eggs I just got from Mediazeal.

The incubator looks empty... It is a converted 6 bottle wine cooler, but I couldn't wait to start!

I got chicks a cookin' in the cooler!

I set 7 eggs (3 Buff Orpingtons & 4 Light Brahmas) in the incubator Saturday...hatching (hopefully)

May 21st! I have more eggs coming this week! So should set 24 more this Saturday! (Blue Ameracuanas, Silver Spangled Hamburgs) Do you have pics of your incubator?
 
I set 37 duck eggs may 2. I would like to hatch along with you. It will take me a little longer though..

I set 48 eggs. Some Black Copper Marans, Salmon Faverolle, EE, Wyandotte and Silkies. Those are eggs I bought from a lady. I will see how well they will turn out.

I set 14 eggs in the incubator last night and would love to hatch along with you.....

Mine are chicken "mutts", LOL
 
Mutts are fine! In fact, the 14 blue eggs were looking very lonely... and the bator was looking pretty empty...

so I put in 5 fresh Mutts from my yard, and 12 fertile eggs from Whole Foods. It looks a litte better now!
Plus, I was etting some funny temperature spikes (notice the high temp in the pic) which seems to have corrected now that there are a few more eggs in the mix.
 
So how is everybody doing today? It is Day 5 for me. I candeled yesterday and saw NOTHING. I am terrified. Even my own eggs that I added should have something in them. I am hoping it is just because it was so early on. Will try again on Day 8.

Can I join you all?
I set eggs this morning 5/6, I know I'll be a few days behind.

I'm using my Hovabator 1588 and I set 15 D'uccle eggs I got from a BYCer.
9 BLRW test eggs of my own. Trying a new Paul roo.
17 BCM eggs from my own flock. I have one spot open and I'm hoping for one more BLRW egg to throw in there.

Good luck to all!
