sold my mismarked Barnevelder today and her Roo mate and the buyer gave me 4 Sizzle eggs

So now my incubator has 12 Barnevelder, 12 Delaware, 4 Crested Cream Legbar and 4 Sizzle

Not quite sure what I will be doing with poodle chickens though LOL

Finally found a chance to SET THE EGGS tonight!!!
I didn't get to set as May as I wanted due to being tied up with all the illnesses going on in this house

BUT...I still got to set 24...
8 Salmon Faverolle
8 Welsummer
8 of our own barnyard mixes

Some are better than none, right?!

I'm not Sally, but I do know that it's good to leave it there until day 18.

Then raise it.

Thanks! These are our serama eggs, we had been running them a bit higher in the beginning then reduced to get some growth on the air cells. This is our first time hatching seramas and I want to make sure we are on the right track.

If I trim my chicken's vent area, will I be able to condition them in time for the mid August fair? Or is that pushing it?
