When I get my 'bator.....

At first, I didn't understand all the posts about the evil chicks, especially the silkies. NOW I know....Like I don't have enough to do with 5 kids, a DH, and a full-time job! UUGGHH!!!
Where's the best place to buy a bator???

Yea, I am reading it all rightl...and my head is swimming!

Order smorder....going to TSC to get the second 'bator on payday!

How many silkie eggs fit in an LG again?!

Tori, those girls still laying???????? Oh and I agree [URL]http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/signs019.gif[/URL]

You better not leave me as the only one hatching over the winter, insisting to hubby that each and every hatch is a necessary one!

41 eggs fit in a LG!! I know!!! I started out with one and no turner, then I had to get a turner, then I needed another for a brooder. Then another because I had some more eggs I just HAD to hatch. Then the other day i was at an auction and just could not pass up 2 and 2 turners for 47 bucks! and Saturday i am picking up another one for an extra brooder. So final count is 6 bators, 4 turners. I think I have the OCD disease

what do you guys think!
 
I am trying to convince myself that 24 eggs is enough for my first hatch...six silkie, 18 standard breeds LOLOL....I can put the silkies in one bator, the standards in another!


I have a styrofoam cooler here just begging to be turned into a hatcher!!

OCD... Obsessive Chicken Disorder ... It's not Disease, because the only cure is to get more eggs, and we all know what happens then! LOL!

Oh yeah! And on top of those 6 bators, 4 turners, I have 5 brooders, ok 6 brooders. Most are made out of rubbermaid containers that I cut the top piece out of and put a heat lamp over the top with a cage like contraption, so it hangs above the lid. YES you read it correctly 5 brooders. 2 are like 4' long and 1' wide and 2 are 2' long by 1' wide and one is a little shoe box size for the newbies after they are all dried off and fluffy butted! the last one is a big round cattle watering trough about 6' across and 2' tall that one is for the little guys as they trapse outside into the new world to get acclaimated to the outside world. They have a heat lamp in case the temp drops too low but there ya go.

I am diseased!!!! I know it, I admit it....Ok here goes!......Hi everyone
