Just set Black Copper Marans, Black Austalorps and White Ameraucanas last night! She has discarded one egg already so we'll see how this thing goes...using my broody Black Australorp Georgia who is hopefully gonna be a good mama if she holds true to her breed. So excited for my first "Broody Hen Hatch"!!!

I set 3 SLW and 6 Maran eggs last night. I had a disastrous first hatch so I am crossing my fingers that things go better this time.

Did my first major egg cull tonight in Incubator 2. I'm officially DONE with shipped eggs...or at least shipped bantam eggs. Down to 4/14 of my shipped bantam BRs, and 8/12 of the local seramas. Had a few blood rings, but the vast majority was no development. Of the BBRs developing only 1 has a stable air cell even after not being turned for 5 days. Oh well...we'll see what happens.

Incubator 1 gets weighed and candled tomorrow
