Best of luck to you !!! Love all the breeds you listed.I have an LG styrofoam still-air incubator. (I think it's still air anyways, since there is no fan). I'm new to chicken raising/hatching but this incubator was given to me by my brother-in-law, so I am excited to learn. I have yet to hatch a chicken, so I'm trying really hard this batch. Third time's a charm I hope! I have 8 Buff Orpington/Barred Rock mix, 7 Production Red/Barred Rock mix, and 5 Minorca eggs with a hint of Polish in them. We'll see if they hatch!
Come Thursday mine will be too. I already have 44 eggs in there, 6 more due today & 24+ due tomorrow. Several are Silkie & Mixed Banties so some eggs are small, but I also have 4 very large duck eggs in there, 7 Call Ducks (not quite so big) and at least 2 of the eggs on the way are ducks as well. Gonna hafta fire the little bator back up for the ones coming today I think since they should just fit all by themselves for a single hatch day, but the rest of my hatch is completely staggered with chicks every couple of days from May 30th to June 14th. I think the last 2 ducks will be scheduled for the 14th...if I remember right. Then I have another 36+ shipping on the 13th (24+ Silkies & another 12+ assorted Pure breeds).Lol, I have 3 dozen Silkies baking, and 18 buff laced Brahmas...... The incubator is overfolwin'
