Certainly is it was my bigger incubator , I put another 74 eggs in tonight and have 40 in the R-com 50 yesterday with the 8 duck eggs . Trev there is a special back of sending eggs in the mail , they need to add a moist paper towel in with the eggs to keep the humidity high for travel.

I checked my next lot today , all the eggs from my dominant white australorp are no good , I have taken him out and he was very skinny I'll see if he fattens up before trying with him again so I have Aurthor in now as I had someone chasing fertile eggs.

I really hope that your white boy will be ok. It would be great if you could hatch something from him. Some more whites would be nice. Let's hope Aurthur will give you some stunning babies. How did he end up growing out BTW?
