15th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-Along

[winterwolf4]

Wow those are nice . We bought Pro series Farm Innovation hold 41 eggs. Happy birthday and happy hatching

The NR 360s can be a little touchy on humidity so I us the shoestring method and it works a lot better.

I'll say absolutely for now, lol. I'm getting 6 Wheaten/Blue Wheaten Marans eggs, and 6 Wheaten/Blue Wheaten Ameraucana eggs by hopefully the beginning of March

In March I will put my Self Blue Ameraucana eggs in the Incubator. So I will do that March 9th just in time for Easter.

I am also working with a breeder on getting Celedon Coturnix Quail. I hopefully will be able to set those March 12. Now if I can just convince my husband to get me a second incubator for my birthday...

My hubby would definitely give me the side/stink eye if I even mentioned a second incubator

But... but the second one is for quail!

Of course it is

That's a long wait.

It's worse because you can't candle them, of course! Never know if they're alive or not until a month in at least - sometimes not even until they hatch.

I would absolutely lose my mind waiting for emus to hatch

Flock is picking up on egg laying, just have to get my mom to keep each pens eggs separated. My Silverudd's Blue roo is in the one pen, any pullets from him will make green or olive eggs depending on momma (hopefully I don't get as many roos as last year). It would be interesting to get some Polish x SBs.

I think I will do another hatch later in the season when it is warmer and I can keep certain hens in a different pen (it's a summer pen).
