The 6th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-a-long!

[Math]

I just set 80 eggs, they range anywhere from leghorn mixes to purebred Polish and Orphingtons with some Seremas and Silky eggs in the second incubator. I'm ready! Had to set them today as I'll be out off town tomorrow. This is my first time with so many eggs.

That is a lot of stacked eggs. Let us know how the stacked incubation turn out for you. Did you mark your stacked eggs?

YAY!!! Today is set day!!!

I still need to give my incubators one last quick cleaning just to make me feel better and I plan to set my eggs at about 11am this morning since I wont be home the rest of the day. I should get to it, time goes by fast.

I will post back with my numbers and pics shortly.

Quick question on assists: can I use triple antibiotic ointment on stuck chicks, or does it need to be plain bacitracin? The triple is bacitracin, neomycin sulfate, and polymyxin b sulfate.

I Set thirty nine eggs, a dozen were shipped and the air cells look iffy.
I got shipped Lavender Ameracaunas and FBCM.

The rest are Salmon Faverolles and EE.
