I love my beautiful Australorp hens, Shannon. They are very sweet.

Julie and Denise,where did you order your eggs from? Also, what brand incubator do you use. My husband wants one.

I get my eggs off of eBay Marilyn. Have had excellent results with packing and fertility. The incubator is my daughters so I don't know what brand it is.I know she got it from Amazon and it holds 4 dozen eggs with an automatic turner and humidity control. I have been researching smaller units as I want one that only does a dozen or so eggs.

My husband has Nankin Bantam chickens. They are small and the roos are beautiful. He has six little hens, and wants to hatch more. He has been saving his eggs. He is looking at one of the smaller incubators too. We shall see. Thanks Julie.

We have incubated from our own hens in the past but now we get our chicks from a hatchery.
