20 various eggs were placed in our brand new incubator 19 days ago. On day six they were candled and four were removed as infertile. Again they were candled on day 16 and as this is our first venture into hatching we left well alone. They have been in the incubator for 19 days, just a few more days to go to see whether this first project of hatching and rearing our own chicks will work. We should have 4 Cochin's, 2 White Star x White Leghorns and 12 Brahmas.
Today we made the brooder and we are keeping a close check to make sure it maintains a 37 c temperature.
