I am looking for some hatching eggs for a New Years Day hatch. . Does anyone in the Phoenix area have any I can purchase for a reasonable price no later than the 10th of Dec.? Whish List: Pure breed Blue Olive Really dark brown egg layers Large White Egg layers (like Leg Horns)

No, was on my way to work and didn't have time.

Pam at Padilla's Peeps ( the breeder in Goodyear) seams like a real nice lady. She was very flexible about pickup time for the eggs and was really good about answering my question. A real Pro.

Thank you for all the recommendations about my new project. Decided to go with blue eggs. Searched around and got 9 Crested Cream Legbar hatching eggs from a breeder in Goodyear, AZ. Set them in the small incubator Friday for a 25th of September hatch date. Really like this new incubator...

Well looks like most of the votes are for Bright Blue eggs. So next question, Best breed for bright blue eggs?

Have not posted in a while but I am constantly lurking in this thread. Need help deciding. I have a empty pen, two incubators (one does 70 eggs and the other does 10) and an itch that needs to be scratched. But........ can't decide which way to go. I want a project. I want to hatch and then...

Roos don't count because they get ate after they crow the first time............

I hope I do have 55 chicks. Always room for more chickens. Aren't you glad your not my neighbor! No really, lets do some math. 55 would be a perfect hatch of what is left. Not going to happen since I got up this morning and the bulb in my incubator had burned out sometime in the night. Temp was...

I candled today and pulled 19 for obvious reasons like being clear or no development. Went from 74 to 55 eggs.

I am looking for a good egg candler and I was wondering if anyone knew of a place in the Phoenix area that sells them. I have seen several on line but kind of want to do eyes on shopping to get a nice one but not too expensive.

Yes! They are. I grouped yours together to make it easier to identify the ones with the codes on them. I even put them in the incubator where it tends to hold the right temp better. lol

Some pictures of my eggs going into the Wine Fridge Incubator I made a few years ago. I have a total of 74 mystery pure breeds. Cant wait to see what comes out!

Thanks. I will get back to you later this week. I have had offers of eggs from a couple other members too, so I will be doing a mixed hatch. I have gotten eggs from you in the past and got some good results. I think some of the ones I am harvesting in January came from eggs from you. Also you...

Now that is an interesting mix. I have a Phoenix Rooster with two White Silkie hens.
