I have fifteen total, and they are all doing wonderfully. Very active, bright-eyed, and bushy-tailed.

Have cleaned my incubator and disinfected. Cranking it up now for a load of quail eggs....Wish me luck

They are so cute So what breeds are they?

Well, it was my first time using an incubator, so I used eggs off my mixed flock. My rooster is a Columbian Wyandotte, the hens are Barred Rocks, Rhode Island Reds, Brown Leghorns, and 2 easter-eggers. The eggs that hatched were all brown eggs, cept one white egg(the brown leghorn). I just can't wait to see what they turn out like.

Awwwwwww.

You should have great luck with quail eggs! They were the easiest to hatch.

I'm sure glad to hear that about quail eggs being easier.....I have been so nervous about trying to hatch them. I was so scared that I did the chicken eggs first as a trial run so to speak.
