Hi guys! I'm looking for a cabinet incubator for hatching this season, if anyone has one for sale near Oklahoma please let me know. I'm willing to travel! Thanks in advance!
Hey everyone! Hope ya'll are having a great Tuesday. My friend ordered me 12 Orpington hatching eggs for my birthday and she got an update that they are coming today! I will head by her house to pick them up as soon as she texts me. I have hatched two batches of shipped eggs before and had a 20%...
recently my lady ducks started laying eggs, and for the fun of it, I thought I'd try to hatch some. it's been two days since and I decided to take a peak. I noticed two dark spots while candle lighting this egg... are there two yolks? and if so, will it still hatch? (with two ducklings??)
I have been looking around and noticed that there are only 4 color variations of Indian Runner ducks commonly available in the U.S. (fawn, chocolate, blue, and black). However there are supposed to be other common color variations like White, Penciled, Buff, and Gray (Mallard). There are also...
Looks like my Runners have started laying again:woot, so am hoping another BYCer's have, too. Please let me know if you have Runner hatching eggs (BBS or just black) or if you expect to have some in spring that can be shipped. TIA!
I am in California, so you MUST be in driving distance from Atascadero, CA. We are under shipping quarentine and chicks/eggs cannot go through the postal service, sooo... I am willing to roadtrip a bit :D

At BluRooFarmOH we take a lot of pride in Breeding Australorps to the Industry Standard of Protection. We started our breeding from Stock from Rattlesnack Ridge. He does a fantastic job of breeding, and has a wealth of knowledge. We have much gratitude for him. We have also added a Black Rooster...
Long time no see, and hopefully everyone had a good holiday!
My partner and I were gifted two diamond dove eggs and although we currently own one female diamond dove, we were going to try and incubate the eggs ourselves. We are setting up our incubator now. I've tried to look into what are...
My silkie has been broody so I decided to give her some eggs. I gave her 2 small standard size (a little bit bigger than a silkie egg) and 1 regular standard sized eggs. So far she has 3 eggs. How many eggs would you give a silkie? I was looking around and some people said 13-14?! I think that...
I just now set 56 of my own quail eggs, plus 10 guinea eggs, and in a week I'll add 11 +/- LARGE breed chicken eggs to hatch-along with the guineas. I've also got 3 turkey eggs that go in lockdown Sunday for a planned CHRISTMAS hatch!!! :bun:jumpy:yesss:
:fl
Edited: 59 quailies & 12 guineas...
Day 13 for my incubation. This little one didn’t have any visible movement. My others did. I can’t tell if I’m seeing veins or a blood ring. Most likely I will wait till hatching day but curious to see what others think.
I have not been on BYC in a long time. They used to have a forum / thread that was specific to your home state. Is this still an option? I can't seem to find it. I would like to find people close to me who may have hatching eggs I can drive to pickup instead of shipping during these cold times...
I don't have a huge flock and currently they are not laying very frequently and I understand why, with it being November-almost-December. So if I collect eggs from my girls and only have 3 in one day, but I'm wanting to get at least 12... Can I hold on to the first 3 for 4 days so I have 12...
Hi backyard chickens. I’ve begun my egg hatching journey. I bought the nurture right 360 incubator. I’ve had it running for almost a day. Temp reads 99.5 to 100°f. It goes back and forth. 50%-53% humidity. Is that ok for temp to go back and forth? Eggs will be here in 2 days. So what I have...
