Sounds like a plan!
.....Can she sit a dozen eggs? We gave our best broody a dozen once, and only one hatched :/

Yeah, I've seen her cover about 18 easily.
That stinks.

WOW!!!!![]()
Yeah... Parakeet is one of the bigger whites, but it was her first time hatching, and she isn't quite that big![]()
NiiiiiiiiiiiceYeah. I made a mistake (ain't happening this time) and forgot to mark the eggs I gave her so instead of just sitting on the ten I gave her she ended up on about 20, and I had to weed out the younger ones (sad as it made me) because I didn't have a bator then, still she hatched six out of the ten.
I see.
And either way you have a bator now - lucky
beginners mistake. It won't happen again.![]()
Ah, yep!Plus, if I give her eggs the same day I set I don't have to worry about lockdown overlap.
