The 5th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-a-long!

[Happy Chooks]

I'm in for the Hatch-a-Long too!

Welcome!

Being one of the first 20 people to join I guess I'm not in it. I set my eggs on the 17th. Oh well I had been waiting for this Hatch-A-Long.

You can still be in the hatchalong. We had to choose cut off dates to make the Guessing contests fair. So your eggs won't be counted in the total, but that doesn't mean you can't be with us. Please stick around.

So, I finally broke down and bought the Brinsea Spotcheck. My husband has built me a cabinet incubator, and I really think it's gonna work out. Temps are holding steady, I just don't know what temp it actually is because all 3 different therms are reading wrong. Humidity is nice and high, which is where I want it because of the duck eggs. So, now I wait. Does Brinsea usually ship quickly, or are they slow?

Ray finally got incentive when I explained that the trio of Pilgrim Geese I'm getting will be laying next year. They lay between 30-50 eggs a year each. At $25.00 a piece Ray saw the light finally, lol!

You won't regret it! It's super accurate!

Going to be hatching Australorps for this hatch-a-long. =)

Cool!

I would like to join! I have a broody hen and plan on giving her some of my call duck eggs next week!

Yaay, baby ducks, I think we are going to see a few this year. Love them!

Happy Chooks..creepy little guy, but he is loved. He is getting big on the net. Poor guy was born with his jaw like that. Now he is making ..not movies..yet..but making big news in a lot of places, like face book for one. Like I said, he's loved and babied.

Okay, my curiosity got the best of me on the Kiwi. Caleb, how about a 63-92 day incubation?

Very interesting, they only lay 1 egg per season and both ovaries are functional.

Oh no, I'm so sorry! I didn't realize he was yours, I thought is was one of those joke pictures you all post.

It's just so zoomed in and in a tunnel. What kind is he? I'll take that free smack in the head now.
