Hello my name is robert and i live in Hayward Ca, i would love to take some or all of your chicks, how many are you trying to hatch out, and what breeds

 

[chickenlover456]

I am not sure yet, but I have an incubator that can only hold 3 chicks.

I do hatching projects in my classroom as part of a civic involvement project. We supply low-income families with 4 or 5 hens and a rooster for eggs and meat. I also live in the country. But you could find families I'm sure who would be happy to have them. Your BYC family would be happy to have them .....

Find a member here, get three eggs from them, hatch them, return them as chicks.

oh no please tell me that you did not get the chick-a-bator

the yellow salad bowl with a nightlight i hated mine it never hatched and if you do not keep enough water in it fill it every 5 or so hours it flips over and all your eggs break.

No, I got a Mini Kid's Incubator. I checked the reveiws and it's said to work pretty well. I didn't want an automatic turner because the kids would have such a blast doing it themselves.
