Won't have total of eggs until I SET MY bantam eggs. Are they legal to set March 8th and be counted in the hatch........

If you expect them to hatch between March 24 and March 28th they would count.

I set 41 eggs. 2 araucana eggs, 8 copper maran eggs, & some backyard mixes from a friend who asked me to incubate for her. For me I set 23 Black Penedesenca eggs.

Thank You and Good luck with your hatch!

I guess I was not clear but is it to late to put me on the Easter hol list because I did set 8 eggs yesterday if not that's fine I'm still going to hatch them?

It's a manual process, usually more than a few posts behind. You have been added. Thank You and Good luck with your hatch!

Yesterday I set 35 chicken eggs (28 Rhode Island Reds and 7 random backyard chickens)

Thank You and Good luck with your hatch!

I did set my 25 eggs early because of the time frame. I did set one egg yesterday from my Black sex link lol. So I guess I have 1 officially for the Easter HOL.

Just to note: YOu guys are awesome for keeping up with so many members participating!

Great! Thank You and Good luck with your hatches!

I got 10 eggs set.

I'm in-kind of by accident! My broody is in the mood again, so I gave her four eggs yesterday without realizing it was the set date for the hatch along! She has barnyard mix eggs, white leghorn, EE, and red sex link. Roos are a splash cochin or a barred rock.

Thank You and Good luck with your hatch!
