I don't think we are going to have an early spring. No gophers out yet. HaHa It is sunny though and supposed to go to +6 today and tomorrow.

Good luck with your hatch! :broodyhen:

No idea if spring will be early or not...but just in case, I put a couple dozen eggs in the bator too. I love hatching, and the grandchildren are always so thrilled to see new chicks come out of food! Good luck with your hatch!!

:wee:
No incubator loading here yet. Space is at a premium still and I'm waiting on turkeys and some special eggs. I'll just curse, er, I mean, live vicariously through you guys.
