The past few days when I have had a free minuite or two I've been browsing the backyard chicken forums and came accross some easter egger chicken hatching eggs for sale, of course I bought them. Going to town tomarrow to pick up an incubator though not for the easter eggers which will instead be place under a broody banty hen, but instead for a couple of dozen mixed guinea eggs that I also came accross.

WHY DIDN"T ANYONE TELL ME POULTRY WAS ADDICTIVE!

Anybody got any tips or tricks?

Believe it or not Bantys can hatch out even turkey or goose or duck eggs. Have fun.

I can't stop. Just ordered 2 dozen Ameracauna hatching eggs. For those interested in seeing some of my chickens and Guineas then check out the link to the picassa album in the main forum.
