You can buy little wire cages at the dollar store, you know the kind that are for holding pencils and such?

The grape containers from Costco are supposed to work well.

It looks like all of my local eggs are developing as well

. We'll see how many hatch since I adjusted my incubator's temperature from last hatch....

cute chicks Sally..

I have 100% fertility..Now comes the hard part..hatching 100%.

hey del, I was having issues trying to incubate shipped eggs and my own fresh eggs together because of weight loss and trying to meet needs with humidity, last batch was better since I held my own eggs for 10 days they seemed to be on track with all the others.

Well I have been so sick and then busy. Ugh. But I got a new incubator that hold 1300 eggs!! Ahhhh I am so addicted to hatching!

1300!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have certainly enjoyed reading this thread!

Can't wait to see all of the chick pics in two weeks!

6 more days until lockdown for me!! Keeping fingers crossed that they start hatching on wednesday and not a day earlier! If they started hatching tuesday I would call off wednesday because there is no way I could go to work knowing little babies are alone and not being looked after in the bator all day! I work part time from M-W, so Thursday-Sunday I have off!

But do silkies hatch a little earlier? Seems like I've read that somewhere?

Good Morning all... It's a cold, rainy day here in Central IL. Did a critter check before bed lastnight and one of my bunnies had babies

She had 7 little fatties. Got another doe due in a couple of days but she's pullin fur now (silly rabbit) so I'll have to put her box in early. New ducklings are doing well, eating and drinking everything in sight! I love Spring, ducklings, chicks and baby bunnies..... what better way to start Spring than with new life.
