The 9th Annual BYC Easter Hatchalong!

[ronott1]

I'm going to have over 100 chicken eggs going in my incubator on Friday.
90 sulmtalers and 16 blue marans.

That is a lot of eggs! Will you be selling the chicks?

I am setting 14 eggs 7 blue copper marans and 7 black copper marans & olive eggers. I am using two incubators mini advance by brinsea so I will know if my blue rooster and blue hens will produce blue chicks only. If not they will go in with main coop and grown out coop will be ready for these chicks.

MId Winter Cleaning house - from top to bottom....hubby is then going to give me a hand with the Chinese incubator. As long as it is rotating eggs and keeping temp, I will be setting my eggs. Fertility rate is low on my Araucana eggs 1 in 8. Weather is CRAZY, I have low visibility & snow up to my knees by the coop and barn. And I have the two juveniles I put in the coop & the neighbors guinea is causing a little disruption in the "nesting" atmosphere. But if I can get a couple more hens I'll be happy! My three Araucanas are laying daily, one standard brahma, and one la bresse mix hen.....so I will have five Araucana eggs, two standard brahma, one bresse mix egg = 8 eggs total to go in the incubator tonight. Unless someone lays an egg later today or I get some shipped eggs-but with the Great Lake Effect snow & Alberta Clipper. I'm wondering if my shipped eggs I tried hatching this winter just got too cold & that's why they didn't hatch. Although, I've heard through the chicken network that there are some that advertise their show birds eggs (but they know they are not fertile & sell them on ebay). I have seen some that advertise their eggs but leave out the word fertile or that they are hatching eggs. So maybe they tricked me with their wording & I ordered some of these....uhg. Why?
