The 8th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-a-long!!!!

[Karen523]

My girls went on strike the week before setting so I only have 5 eggs in my small Brinsea right now. Still excited to see them hatch on Easter

Ugh! Don't you just hate it when that happens? My silver Laced Orpingtons did the same thing.

Mine just went on vacation as well. Of course, that's because the goats were getting into the chicken feed

. Goats got kicked out of the barn into the field. It's nice enough weather here now, anyhow.

This is my first time joining a hatch-a-long. How do I get my egg # in this chart? I set 27 eggs total. Thanks!

We'll get you updated on the list.

Now i can currently can hatch 116 eggs at a time after getting the other new incubator today And the one my mom picked up on Saturday!
I have a 42 egg Styrofoam, an antique 50 egg bator, and my Brinsea Octagon 20 advance!
Can't wait for the next time I hatch!

@Happy Chooks Can I join this in on this one? I set 31 CCL's, 5 OE's, 4 Blue CM's and 9 Black CM's today!

Sure can! Welcome!

I ended up not setting any due to travel plans too close to hatch date.

99 eggs set fingers crossed

Just couldn't get ONE more egg?

I love my Cochin because I literally picked her up put her in a nest. Or, gave her eggs and she INSTANTLY went broody
She is like an instant incubator

I can't wait to see everyone else's chicks hatches later on I can't wait

Nice! How many eggs did you set under her?

Quote: Wow, 75 days? They hold on to it for a long time!

I set 10 black orpington eggs for the HAL. Didn't see my egg count on the spreadsheet just making sure you got my number.

Thanks for reposting!

When all of your eggs are set for the Hatch-a-long, please post your total number of eggs set here in this thread.
This includes all types of fowl.

Please total your eggs, so BantyChooks doesn't have to count them all. There is plenty
of work involved just recording the numbers for this many people hatching at once.

If you do not set any eggs, please post that too, so we know not to contact you for your number of eggs set.

Pictures are great, as we all love seeing egg pictures..........but they are not mandatory.
Thank you!​

Update: The old Hovabator from the DI actually came from an Elementary school in Taylorsville UT! No wonder it has problems!
Despite the massive swings in temperature today's hatch day for our Japanese Quail Tester Run and this morning I heard one knocking!!!
