Some one really needs to make some new emoticons that really relate to all our chicken madness.

My post got lost lol
I want to spread out the duck eggs for lockdown since i threw out 9 chicken eggs. Little giant still air digital reading. Where can I place the eggs so they get pretty even heat?

It was a long winter. Only one of our 3 that we put in the incubator was fertilized, and it hatched a day early - but here it is a couple hours into 2 minutes. It's doing great in the brooder now =)

This was so fun. Thanks for posting. Now, guess what you have to do? Yep, go find it a companion so it won't be lonely. Who has chicks for sale in town right now?

Is it my imagination or are a lot of people who set to hatch Saturday hatching early?

I actually set just after midnight, on the 13t...well, it would be the 14th..lol..so, they are due tonight around midnight, but most have hatched.
