Set today 5/2 Wanna hatch along?

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

 

[mikki717]

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!
