Oh yes they are nice. I'll have to have a look for some eggs.

The goat must have been in the house for a good half hour before I realised.

Someone in an old Smallholder mag built an incubator out of an old fridge!

I can get a copy if you'd like Richy?

Okay so its arrived now, got it set up and working, happy the temperature control is good, humiditiy seems constant, so now I'm ready to go, just need some eggs.

I have loads of fertile quail eggs, bot don't really want more quail, have fertile duck eggs, but again don't really want more ducks. So what shall I do? Has anybody got any eggs to swap?

Thanks in adavnce

Thought you were doing a Munty there! never heard of Lemon Cuckoo Orpintons, Pekins yes. I did a earch on Google and can't find any info on them are you sure they are a genuine breed?

I bought 6 Prize Winning Buff Orpington eggs on Ebay and didn't get a single chick

the other 6 Gold Laced Orpingtons I got 4 out of 6.
