I will be setting eggs tonight. So I would like to join you all in this hatch! I will be setting my own. Some EE's as I lost my only green layer over the winter. The other eggs are orp mixed. I have a lav. roo and a BBS orp splash roo along with some blue, buff and black hens. It will be interesting to see what hatches. Last time I set my own eggs, I got a beautiful chocolated laced orp!!! Hopefully we can all get through this hatch together!! Temp is set and humidity is stable.

Well my other incubator got here and the temp is regulating as we speak.
Here it is. I suppose I could stack in this one, but I'm not going to.

So here is the grand total of my eggs in the three bators.

28 eggs from Peachick (Kathy)

34 eggs from Wayne Meredith

18 eggs from pasofinofarm (Melissa)

All of the above are BW X w/BW... All of Waynes eggs are BW X BW so I should get 25% Wheaten, 50% Blue Wheaten and 25% Splash Wheaten

My eggs
1 GC Maran (should be pure)
3 BWA X BBL Polish (Policauna..

)
3 BWA X Salmon Faverolle (Salwheatenacauna )
1 BWA X Black Star (see if I can get a prolific green layer)... but it could end up being the offspring of the GC Maran that I rehomed.
7 BWA X W/BWA from my coop.
______________________________________________
95 eggs total


OK, even son of Mahonri thinks I'm a little nuts because I have 14 stacked in the hovabator (but the turner keeps working)... and 4 stacked in the Brinsea.

Here's pics of the rest... first the Hovabator. It's stacked but when I candle at day 10, I know I'll be discarding at least that many so they should all have their own spot for the remainder of the incubation.

I tried to put the SF eggs in the InCube, but they fell through the holes!... also cracked one of my polish eggs because it fell through too.

And the Brinsea

So I'm a day early folks, but I'm still with you folks on the Good Friday Hatch!

my eggs came today 17 black copper marans who knows where the rest of the eggs are they were supposed to be here yesterday but they didn't get mailed until then....be at the PO sat I figure because I'm out of town tomorrow. I'm setting the marans eggs I'll just put the others in when they show up

So i have mine in the hovabator the temp droped to 87 when i stuck them in which is odd it was warm today the room temp should have been good. I hope it goes up soon I have all mixed in there my polish is jumping all the hens should make a interesting hatch i also have a few silkies and some ee so we shall see what happens. I might try to do the stack on the turner to LOL. Good luck all




I hate waiting the 7 days to look for viens
