Well today is day 11 for my guys... I don't think they look right at all. I candled them yesterday and again today. I haven't seen any change really since the third day. Oh well. I give them until the 17th at least... No smell or anything, which is good at least. :|

Maybe I should just try to find some chicks locally.

I see you have BCM, do you like them as a breed. I am thinking of getting some for my flock. I have RIR, Black Australorp and silkies now. The Corp is good at giving those gifts that just keep giving and giving the rest of your life.

Finally got in my bantam cochin eggs.. So far so good, no broken ones.. Can't wait to start incubating. Should i let them sit for 24 or 48 hours? They arived in 2 days after shipping

Just curious because im seconde guessing how I put them in. I have already set my eggs yesterday morn in an automatic egg turner like this


Is this ok placement since it is circulated air or should I stagger them around and space them out?

Question, what kind of incubator is that and what is the big red thing??


edit: OK nm i just found it on ebay.
