yes! I told my partner this morning that we are going to have the brooder in the house for at least the first week so they can get used to our voice and being handled.

That would be amazing! I’m coming from Florida and I’m driving so I think the best way would be for me to overnight them and have them incubated then pick them up when they hatch. Where are you located?
Hi there! I’m moving to lewis county wa in a few weeks and am looking for someone near with an incubator that could receive and hatch out some eggs for me.
I can’t bring my chickens but I would love to be able to keep my little flock going.
I am willing to pay for your help.
Thank you...
