Have you hatched your own before?? I guess this is really a tester batch. I think I am going to order Coturnix Quail eggs (because they hatch in 17 days and mature at 8 weeks and start laying then), for a much quicker turn around.

I haven't had meat chickens before, but I have heard that they do stink worse than regular chickens?? Maybe from extra protein?? I dunno! Hahaha. I don't get mad about that. But I was definitely mad about the putting together of the 'bator! Hahaha. I just wasn't ready. but we did it! Hahahaha.
