Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh----the DH just came home with......an incubator. I am terrified to ever even use it....but I should try! It is kinda late, we finally have most of the chickens we want. BUT I have these Blue Wyandottes who were with a rooster, and I saved their eggs.....question.....if I picked them up on Sunday, how many eggs would I guess at being fertile? Just the first day eggs from Monday morning? I saved 3 days worth. I might try to put them in there and see what happens. the First day eggs have been on the counter in a little paper cup, point side down, untouched. the day two and three eggs are in the fridge point side down. Tell me what you guys think

They are BLRWs. I've got a small flock of them up in Duchesne and this group is actually the first pure BLRW hatch out of them.
,Hi all! I'm new to this website, and new to the idea of having chickens. I live in Riverton, have just started researching, and I'm actually getting a little discouraged. I don't have a lot of land. We have about 1/5 of an acre. I would love to have chickens, mainly for two reasons: I try to buy as much of our food locally as possible, and would love to be able to just go out into the backyard for eggs; and I'm allergic to most animals with fur. We can never have dogs or cats, but I bet my kids would love to have chickens as pets. The reason I'm feeling so discouraged is that it feels like Riverton isn't very friendly towards the idea of chickens, unless you have more acreage. It sounds like the limit is 2, and even then a coop has to be 40 feet from any houses. I measured my backyard, and I can go 40 feet from my house, but that doesn't leave me much room. And I have 3 kids. I want 3 chickens.
Maybe I just need to do more research, or maybe it's not meant to be for me. I would love some advice from anyone who lives in Riverton, or anyone whose ordinances are similar and has a smaller piece of land like I do. Thanks!
