Anyone else have some rockers in their incubator? I have a Gold Sebright egg that every time I walk in and look in the incubator is in a new position. I'll be surprised if it isn't the first one to pip.

And before I could even post this I caught a Silver Sebright start wiggling away. Lol These have been very active eggs.

I better get moving then lol I just turned 25 on March 31st and I’ve never had a boyfriend or anything and haven’t even met anyone I’d be remotely interested in yet or really anyone at all

Oh don't you worry about it. Lol it'll happen when it happens. I'll be just 2 months shy of 31 when my first (probably only) little one gets here in May. Granted I had planned on having my kids earlier in life but things rarely turn out the way we think they should.

Got my plastic canvas from amazon!

I have an egg with an air cell directly on the side of the egg. I haven’t candled it in a few days but it was developing great last check.

Should I try and either make its own compartment with my canvas so it doesn’t get knocked around or put it in a cut out carton or something with the others from that breeder to hold it in place in case it gets knocked about?

I have too many eggs and not any experience helping anything hatch, so my plan is to put them into lockdown with the best chances and only open if some hatch way early and need to get out.

Ah yes, the teenage years


You have time, you're still young.





Omg that's hilarious.

I guess so but not if I don’t find somebody soon if I want to be together a while first lol

And I thought it was too but for some reason I thought Ron had kids so then I wasn’t sure if he was being serious or if it was a joke and didn’t want to be rude if it was serious hence my reply which probably seemed like I didn’t get it

I'm in lockdown. Started with 67 eggs and 41 make it to lockdown.

I ordered some chicks that was to be shipped yesterday. Then I get a call this morning saying they didn't ship because they ran out of chicks filling other order. I'm a little upset about this because I really wanted them to be here before Easter, but now they will ship Monday.

I put the candler to the top of the eggs while they were still in the turner today. All 32 look good! There is movement in the double yolker, but it doesn't look like there are 2 in there.
