Oh lawd my wife ordered an egg incubator. Once it gets here we’ll be 21 days out from 41 new chicks. Doing the math puts us at the potential to hatch 712 birds in a year. Send help dudes
What kind did you get? I built one out of a Redbull mini fridge several years ago. It has an auto turner and digitally controlled heat and humidity. Hatch rates are great with it.

I’m picking up Barred Rock eggs now for a hatch, but it’s going to be small because I’m down to one BR hen. I’m trying to keep this line going though because they’re sexable at hatch by leg color.

We need to do a hatch thread.

Actually.... the potential for exponential growth places the numbers (according to my analysis of a chickens gestation period) to somewhere in the neighborhood of 4800 per year.

True, but the incubator only holds 41 eggs at a time. My math was based off of 21 day cycles and 41 eggs per batch

So what about this kit?
Is it worth it?

The way I see it, u u still have to get a receiver and build it, so might as well just get a WASR. Even with dimples it'll still just be a kit build.

I'm waiting on my wife to text me the link. We have a friend who breeds Swedish Flowers and recommended this one to us. I think it holds 41 eggs. We are going to get some Silver Penciled Wynodettes to hatch since my wife has always wanted them. I also have some Old English Bantams I'm going to try and hatch. I'll make a hatch thread!

They look at us like hooligans but they don't understand the hand that i was dealt, the dreams that i watch melt, the pain that i done felt, the storms that i survived, and the rain that i done felt

Had to google these lyrics. Thanks for introducing me to Rod Wave, off to listen to all his albums.
