Hi

Im not trying to seperate this forum up but i thought it would be nice to know who and how many UK based members there are here

The main reason is then as the members in USA conduct Egg Swaps and Counrty and County based Sales and Advice then we can see who would be best to ask for local advise

So Any UK member just say Hi and state which Town/County your in


I will Start

I'm in UK, West London [Berkshire]

Hi everyone I live in south Devon England

Thanks!
I have 50 Bovan Brown Hens and 2 buff Orpington+Bovan Brown cockerels I also have 2 jack Russell terrier puppies Rusty and Russell.
How about you?

The electrical connection somehow came loose from my incubator and the eggs are now cold. I must have loosened the connector when I last turned them and not double checked that it was still lit when i put the lid on. Stupid mistake. Ive now turned it back on but no chance of any survivals now I guess.

Not many then! I have 20. 6 ex batts, 2 brahma, 3 bluebells, a light Sussex an Araucana 1 Warren 4 whitestars and two cuckoo marans! I also have 5 quail and my wife had two many rabbits and guinea-pig to count! It's a nice assortment but time consuming!

Do you know how long it was unplugged for? If you think about it, in nature the broody gets off to go find food so the eggs will cool. Hopefully it's not too long and eggs will be OK.

Oh thanks for thinking of me! My coop is now full unfortunately.

I checked the eggs once they warmed up and shock of horror there is a little black movement in one of them.... I might have a survivor in egg number 5. Well I put in 6 more eggs now
