Hatch away, and post lots of pictures! I'm going through serious withdrawal right now, haven't hatched anything since Fall and just moved all the brooders out... House is so quiet

Update, of the 160+/- eggs the went in 85% of them hatched out, I'm pleased with that, if you're looking for chicks I have lots to spare, real estate is at a premium for these guys or me depending who my wife sees more favorable
