Well, after watching my white EE sit on wooden eggs for a week with only a daily break for food water and dust bath, I gave her some eggs to try to hatch. I slapped together this little "efficiency apartment" for her. Pics are before food, water, or hen were added. We shall see if this actually works out. She is one of my first chickens, born last August. Totally did not expect this. I set 6 EE, 2 NH, and 2 Brown or White leghorn eggs all mixed with my SLW roo. Fertility is unknown, her skill as a momma is unknown. All a little leap of faith. So, that said, let me show just how green I am in all this. I set the eggs yesterday afternoon. When do I start counting days? Yesterday? Or today?
