Setting the first group of eggs tomorrow!!!!!! It will be Cochins and some from my flock. Where these are checking for fertility should I wait to offer up #'s till I candle??

I think my first set of eggs may be lost in the mail. They should have been here today. Bi signed up for updates. Sat and yesterday I just got in transit to next destination on time. I got an update around 630pm tonight that just said in transit to next destination but it hasn't been scanned in anywhere since it left her local PO on Friday...... So if they happen to come tomorrow that is technically 5 days in the mail system......


On a better note!!!! My 2nd set of eggs shipped today. Estimated delivery is Wed which surprises me since it is the same state about 2-2.5 hrs away so thought for sure it would only take a day....

Exciting! Hope all the eggies arrive safely.

Hopefully these ones don't get lost like the ones that the other person I buy from sent me to test fertility! At least these ones have been scanned in a few places and are at the distribution center in the town next to me. The other set hasn't been scanned since Fri when they left the breeders hometown post office....

So ALL my eggs arrived today. Lol. They are all resting and will go in tomorrow. I need to figure out how to fit them. I knew the ones I bought sent 28. The ones I am testing I told I only had my 12 egg incubator open ..... She sent 17!!!!

I had bought a new incubator that holds 24, after I told her this, and I have my NR360. The one I bought from should have been 25 but she added 3 SF because her fertility was 50/50 her last hatch. So I had spots for 46 eggs. Planned on 37, then the other one bumped so figured 40. I set 9 of mine not knowing fertility and figured some wouldn't be so could remove those and they would fit. Wasn't expecting an extra 5 eggs from the one I am testing for.....

I now have 46 spots and 54 eggs..... Hopefully I can remove some of mine tomorrow but probably not all ...... Guess we see how many I can stack for a few days. Lol

And we have babies!!!!! Candled the 9 I set from my flock. 2 weren't fertilized the others are!!!! Well 1 I believe is but hard to see a baby for sure!!!!
