who likes to hatch eggs

[marytoast]

I am on the 11th day of my first hatch. I love it. It is also driving me completely mad. I cannot wait to see my new babies!!!! 19 amercaunaus

 

[what was i thinking]

in oct i was looking at the little r com that holds three eggs, now i am looking for a sportsman. if that shows you how bad it can become.... be afraid, very afraid.

every time i hatch some she says "good now we have enough chickens " yea hunny sure untill she comes home the next night and see the incubator light on and

well you know what happens!!!

I'll hatch anything. My (departed) trusty old redwood bator has hatched chukar, quail, pheasant, guinea, turkey, duck, chicken, partridge... you name it. I'm going to miss that thing...

first hatches are always hard keeping my fingers crossed

Does a bear go in the woods?

Does a silkie go broody?

Yup. 6 incubators now, including a Sportsman 1502.

I'm in SO much trouble....

With the warmer weather, ALL of my birds are laying... chickens AND quail...

 

[monarc23]

Button Quails, Coturnix Quails, Golden Comets, and RIRs so far

well the RIRs havent hatched yet soo... lol


oh and two incubators....

addiction? oh yes! my little giant stays on constantly. i cross things to see what i get.....ee x cuckoos or ee x sultans or sultan x phoenix..etc addictive? naw....

 

[justinszoo]

I'm not at all addicted!! I only have 4 LG's and am getting a cabinet next month. I have hatched chickens, turkeys, quail, pheasant, chukar, and tried waterfowl w/o a lot of success. All of chicks get sold, so I hatch what the market wants. I am currently running test hatches with 53 eggs in.

I really wish someone would have warned me before I bought that incubator. It is almost full now. It has 19 eggs. I am shopping for more eggs when they are done. Sooooo addicted.
