I think this has turned into the most expensive egg I have ever hatched!!! I paid $104 for 12 turkey eggs 7 Royal Palm & 5 Blue Palm and I ended up with 1 being viable after the USPS got done. 3 arrived crushed and 8 had broken yolks, at least the guy I bought from has offered me more as soon as I let him know how many survived. On the up side the one that did survive is a Blue Palm which was what I was looking forward to the most. I do have 5 more Royal Palm eggs waiting for the incubator to empty this weekend and I'm going to give it another go. Now I'm just waiting to see if my 5 goose eggs have made it to the end, when I candled them after 2 weeks they were all viable and when I candled them a few days ago they were full so I have my fingers crossed that all 5 live to hatch. I had 7 chicken eggs that developed then just before hatch died, 1 Welsummer, 1 Splash Cochin, 2 Blue Orpingtons, & 3 Lavender Orpingtons.

As soon as the button quail that are in my second incubator hatch I think I'll add some eggs from the assortment we have out here in the yard and see what I get for mixed breeds  I'm also going to add a few duck eggs at the same time and see what I come up with there - my 2 drakes are a Rouen & a Chocolate Call and my females are 2 Rouen, 2 Black Swedish, 1 Mallard, and 2 White Call.
