I just can’t believe you put the eggs in that incubator 😅 they were expensive so at least put them in a good incubator 😅 I still enjoyed the vid keep it up man 👍🏻
Hi! We have the same incubator and the first time we tried, the same exact thing happened. Only 2 out of 12 eggs hatched from our farm. What we didn’t realize, was that the styrofoam packaging it comes in, isn’t just for shipping, but actually helps insulate and regulate the temperature much much better. We were able to successfully hatch 8 out of 12 Royal Palm turkeys eggs using the styrofoam. Whoever wins this incubator. Please use the styrofoam. Also, the battery connection came in handy when a storm knocked out our power for half a night. Used the lawn mower battery to make sure the eggs stayed warm. Hope this info helps!
Jake what was your reasoning for testing a new incubator on such expensive eggs? Why didn’t you use your best incubator to make sure more eggs hatched?
@@turtleman190 You’re right. You shouldn’t give special treatment to eggs just because they are expensive. However, incubating fertile shipped eggs does require more delicate care in the incubation process to produce a higher probability of a hatch. Unlike fertile eggs you receive from your own backyard flock or a neighbor’s, shipped eggs have gone through the riggers of the mailing handling system, therefore on the exterior the eggs may appear (no broken eggs or hairline cracks) fine, internally they may have been injured and requires specific care and delicate handling to hopefully produce the best chances of a higher hatch number. I know this from personal experience hatching out 20 shipped eggs from reputable breeders on eBay. I had a 10/20 hatched for a 50% hatch rate. In those eggs that hatched, their air cell were saddled and in the ones that didn’t hatch/no or little development, there air cells remained detached despite me having them rest with the “fat end up” for 12+ hours. Mind you, I used a Brinsea incubator (one of the best brand in the business). So yes, you shouldn’t give special treatment to eggs even if they’re expensive, but you need give purposeful treatment to shipped eggs whether inexpensive or not. 😊
Honestly I can’t believe you guys didn’t uses your best incubator to hatch out those eggs. Feel like it was such a waste but it’s fine I guess. Keep doing what you’re doing!
can i just say that i LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE that you fit the ENTIRE process in ONE video?? you don’t understand how satisfying it is. i watch every single ad because of this.
Honestly, my first thought when I saw you using/testing a new incubator was "with such expensive eggs Id use an incubator that you know and trust most, gotta give it best youve got:)"
I don't get what they do... they can't produce anything besides youtube content... they don't show anything that is sustaining.... they must just be youtubers... which means these eggs are nothing but views to them 🤷♀️ which is why capitalism is so great.
@@AM-oq5ik I mean it’s UA-cam. So of course they’re capitalizing off their videos. Anyone doing anything sustainable on their farm probably won’t have the time to make UA-cam videos. Or waste money on expensive eggs just to place them in a crappy and cheap incubator.
Dang, that was a lot of money for so many losses. Maybe you can work with Greenfire for more eggs? I'm a little surprised you went with an untested incubator on such an expensive clutch... probably should have saved that for something not so rare.
@@leroyremco7897 I only use Brinsea incubators. . Its a false economy to use a cheap incubator. Temperature is key plus humidity during their lockdown.
That incubator is actually great, really high percentage hatch rate for us. Instructions say to keep the styrofoam with the packaging to insulate the plastic bin but I'm guessing you threw it out. Great video!!
Aww these are beautiful but I need to say thank you for giving these eggs the home they needed they are lucky to Have you as an owner, You are thoughtful and caring and you know what to do!

Really appreciate the video, when I looked at the incubator, it struck me that it really didn't seem like it would be insulated enough to maintain temp. I am currently incubating a few of my friends eggs in a homemade incubator, we are on day 11. After candling we only see 2 out of 12. Ours are silkies and frizzels
We have this incubator and it should have a styrofoam skirt that helps hatch rates immensely. Ours came with distinct instructions upon opening the box not to get rid of the styrofoam. We also dry hatch with it as it impossible to keep humidity down in the beginning.
I want the incubator, and I’m going to be hatching chicks for a teacher that uses animals to gain the interest of her students. I recently donated 4 blue Plymouth chicks to her, and said her students loved them. I’m from California
I’m using this incubator for my first hatch, so far so good! It has a temperature calibration of +/- 2 degrees. Just make sure you don’t destroy the styrofoam thinking it’s for shipping. It’s acts as an insulator for the incubator. Mine never drops or goes over 0.2 degrees when circulating.
Glad you got those two chicks ... and to be fair, $60 per chick is about the same price they had their chicks priced on their website, right? Blimmin' expensive though!
Judging from the way the eggs were developing till the 6th day I’d say it was the incubator’s fault, it happened with me one and all my peacock eggs got wasted.
Hello guys! My name es Francisco and I'm from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷! I love your videos and I'm always rooting for you and your projects. I will definitely use the incubator to hatch geese 🥚. Thank you for everything, God bless you all.
Hi! Again another fun video. My son wants us to win this incubator. He loves when we hatch out chicks. We have a batch in right now and due Feb28. Weve had many successful hatches as well as many fails. Last batch we only got one out of about 30...we named it hen solo until we found out it was a He and just left it at Solo. 🤣 Our previous batches weve had a high hatch rate. We are from southern California and We hatch barnyard crosses. Our hens are..Ameraucana, cochins, gold laced Wyandotte, barred rock, speckled sussex, ISA brown, and the roos are silver spangled hamburg, Blue Andalusian, and Barred Rock cross. We also have some Pekin ducks which we have successfully hatched chicks and ducks together. Ive done a few turkeys too. We'd love to give this incubator another go and see how it works. Take care out in that cold weather in MO. I wish I could send you all some sunshine!
I want it to hatch my RIR heritage eggs. I am from Pakistan and I watch all of your videos regularly whenever they pop up with my family. You and your family are an inspiration to me. Regards
Im 14 and im from england, i am hoping to hatch silkies this year as my silkies have started laying fertile eggs. i currrently have no incubator and i would need one so if something goes wrong, i can still hatch them. Thanks so much, Rory.
I had 2 incubators like these, they ususally come with a foam. If you take it out the incubator will loose temperature like crazy. If you leave it be, it works just fine.
I have this incubator! You're missing the outer shell on the bottom that goes around the clear plastic part, that might be why it had problems holding the heat. I've been looking for a good review on the unit (just put my first new batch in) since I haven't used it before. Hopefully the bottom insulation shell makes a difference for my eggs.
I want the incubator!!! Love your videos. You actually taught me a lot. It’s awesome seeing my kids face when it comes to our chickens and just loving trying new stuff. I will try and hatch out some Easter eggers. I’m from St.louis Missouri. No matter what awesome channel
I’d love to win the incubator, I’m really hoping to hatch some silkies, I’m not really picky on what kind, just really excited to start being a bit self sufficient. I’m from Arkansas! 💙
I never had an incubator I would like freak out if I got one, would be super cool and I would probably try to get some Mandarin duck eggs and try to hatch em out also button quails there super cute, By the way im from (South Africa) 😍😋👍
I used this exact incubator for my silkie eggs... 5 developed out of 6 but only 3 hatched after. I would recommend anyone buying this is get a separate temp/humidity reader for the inside as the temperature reader is a bit off on this incubator. But overall was really happy x
Hello to anyone reading this! I eggs that I am hatch are finally hatching!! I have just a few videos up if anyone is bored! Anyways, I cant believe that their that expensive!! My gosh! Well I hope you have the best of luck!
@@hunterhill9838 I am putting up my a video of my hatching super soon!! I almost got full hatch rate!! I have one still in its egg as your read this right now!😄 And I wanted to say thank you for taking for the time to watch my videos it was really nice of you!!
Awesome channel so much knowledge that I have been able to apply. I would love the incubator to hatch out some Americana chicks with my 4 kids here in Kentucky. Keep the great videos coming.
Hi I just recently found your videos. This is my second year to raise chickens and I cant wait to start hatching them myself. I have a road island red and a black orpington chicken. I do have a rooster that is a mix between a silkie and a bantam. I enjoy your videos very much! I also am in missouri.
Greatings from south Africa, I just love watching your videos of chicks hatching even if I feel sad when not every chick makes it. I've never had a incubator before so i don't even know what I would hatch, probably so rhode island red chicks as there color is so lovely. Hope your all staying safe, warm and healthy in these troubling times, best of luck for any upcoming projects you guys might have.
Hi from Missouri as well!!! I was wondering what you think about the Little Giant incubator? I bought mine at Orshlen's and love it. Personally I manually turn the eggs and have a a 90% hatch rate. Hope you all are having a fantastic day when you read this.
I would love to get an incubator, I'm not gonna hatch any birds instead it'll be snake eggs since the incubator can work for them too and I'm from the UK 😁
God no! Bird eggs need to be turned, reptile eggs do not, turning can actually kill reptile eggs. Please get a reptil specific incubator, especially as some species need higher/lower temps than what bird eggs need.
We would love the incubator! We are planning to hatch some chickens from our neighbors. These could include anything random assortment of chickens, we don’t currently have any chickens and are really excited to try and acquire some this year! We are located in Montana. I hope we get picked and if not I hope the people who do have fun hatching out their eggs!
Little tip for eBay bidding! Always go to an odd amount over what you plan to spend on your maximum. So if you were going to bid 150 then put in 151.99. It works for me almost every time. That way if someone else already has 150 as their bid you would win 😉
I would really like to have an incubater. I am a kindergarten teacher from switzerland. We always have to rent one for our kids, because it's a subject they can learn so much about but we don't really have the budget to buy one at the moment. We do hatch some different chickens from the most common hens around here, depending on the year. we have to look up what we can get that is in our budget. the kids just really love it when we have chickens in kindergarten. they stay in a quite room beside our main room, so they aren't in our daily chaos. the kids get to learn about how they grow first inside the egg then outside, how they have to care for them and a lot more about hens and roosters too.
The guy that asked you to test out that incubator clearly said he wasn't sure how to regulate humidity and temperature, I am not sure why one would be tempted to put eggs that were so expensive in a questionable incubator. Expensive error.
I'd like the incubator! I live in Texas, and I'm planning on hatching an assortment of chicken eggs. I'm hoping I can keep the temp up if I add another heating element or extra insulation.
I'm really glad that you show the whole process of hatching especially the part of the embryos not fully developing
thank you
I just can’t believe you put the eggs in that incubator 😅 they were expensive so at least put them in a good incubator 😅 I still enjoyed the vid keep it up man 👍🏻

Maybe the farm can just send you a few live chicks. This was a costly mistake, which I'm surprised you did.
You should never give special treatment to eggs jusy because there expensive but yes definitely should have used a known reliable incubator

Hi! Again another fun video. My son wants us to win this incubator. He loves when we hatch out chicks. We have a batch in right now and due Feb28. Weve had many successful hatches as well as many fails. Last batch we only got one out of about 30...we named it hen solo until we found out it was a He and just left it at Solo. 🤣 Our previous batches weve had a high hatch rate. We are from southern California and We hatch barnyard crosses. Our hens are..Ameraucana, cochins, gold laced Wyandotte, barred rock, speckled sussex, ISA brown, and the roos are silver spangled hamburg, Blue Andalusian, and Barred Rock cross. We also have some Pekin ducks which we have successfully hatched chicks and ducks together. Ive done a few turkeys too. We'd love to give this incubator another go and see how it works. Take care out in that cold weather in MO. I wish I could send you all some sunshine!
I want it to hatch my RIR heritage eggs. I am from Pakistan and I watch all of your videos regularly whenever they pop up with my family. You and your family are an inspiration to me.
Regards
I really need an incubator I live in Texas and I'm trying to raise miniature chickens

Hopefully it works out better for you
Im 14 and im from england, i am hoping to hatch silkies this year as my silkies have started laying fertile eggs. i currrently have no incubator and i would need one so if something goes wrong, i can still hatch them. Thanks so much, Rory.
Hey! I'm 14 too!
you have to gmail him
I’m 14 and hatching Silkie eggs too! All updates are on @brockposting on TikTok. I hope your hatching goes well!
@@mymountainlife0707 Hey me too
Just an fyi you shouldn't give your age out online, its unsafe and just giving out your age is enough to make you a target to shady people
I had 2 incubators like these, they ususally come with a foam. If you take it out the incubator will loose temperature like crazy.
If you leave it be, it works just fine.
living the dream haha
Remember me
I’m from San Diego and my love birds just layer TWO EGGS so it’ll be a interesting process
I have this incubator! You're missing the outer shell on the bottom that goes around the clear plastic part, that might be why it had problems holding the heat. I've been looking for a good review on the unit (just put my first new batch in) since I haven't used it before. Hopefully the bottom insulation shell makes a difference for my eggs.
“Im not going to tell Becky how much I spent on these eggs” 😂
1." I want to win it"
2. Chicken eggs
3. Philippines
I want the incubator!!! Love your videos. You actually taught me a lot. It’s awesome seeing my kids face when it comes to our chickens and just loving trying new stuff. I will try and hatch out some Easter eggers. I’m from St.louis Missouri. No matter what awesome channel
I’d love to win the incubator, I’m really hoping to hatch some silkies, I’m not really picky on what kind, just really excited to start being a bit self sufficient. I’m from Arkansas! 💙
Silkies top a few lists for being friendly chickens 🐓
Managed to live hatch 2 out of 12 eggs, couldn't keep heat over 95 this will be the most expensive free egg rotter you will ever have.
I never had an incubator I would like freak out if I got one, would be super cool and I would probably try to get some Mandarin duck eggs and try to hatch em out also button quails there super cute, By the way im from (South Africa) 😍😋👍
I used this exact incubator for my silkie eggs... 5 developed out of 6 but only 3 hatched after. I would recommend anyone buying this is get a separate temp/humidity reader for the inside as the temperature reader is a bit off on this incubator. But overall was really happy x
Hello to anyone reading this! I eggs that I am hatch are finally hatching!! I have just a few videos up if anyone is bored! Anyways, I cant believe that their that expensive!! My gosh! Well I hope you have the best of luck!
I just watched your videos and I hope you have a great hatch rate👍
@@hunterhill9838 I am putting up my a video of my hatching super soon!! I almost got full hatch rate!! I have one still in its egg as your read this right now!😄 And I wanted to say thank you for taking for the time to watch my videos it was really nice of you!!
@@greenmeadowhomestead3195 I can't wait to see the video. I just had 10 chicks hatch and I am waiting for the last 3
@@hunterhill9838 Wow that’s amazing!!! I hope all of them have hatch! What kinds of breeds are you hatching!! I am uploading my video right know!
@@greenmeadowhomestead3195 I have red pyle and barred rock bantams and I have barred blue olive eggers and red junglefowl
I want to win it for my sister, she want to hatch button quail eggs, where from UK, and keep up the good work I been watching you for years.
Awesome channel so much knowledge that I have been able to apply. I would love the incubator to hatch out some Americana chicks with my 4 kids here in Kentucky. Keep the great videos coming.
I was confused as to why you’d test a new incubator with such an expensive set of chicken eggs. 🤷🏽♂️ really wished they had all hatched 🥺.
“Don’t worry about it” 😂😂😂
Hi I just recently found your videos. This is my second year to raise chickens and I cant wait to start hatching them myself. I have a road island red and a black orpington chicken. I do have a rooster that is a mix between a silkie and a bantam. I enjoy your videos very much! I also am in missouri.
That’s literally me tho with my live ducks. I order wood ducks or ring reals and we just don’t talk about what I spent on them lol
I want to win the incubator because I don’t have one and I’ll be hatching some mallard duck eggs and I live in Texas.
Greatings from south Africa, I just love watching your videos of chicks hatching even if I feel sad when not every chick makes it. I've never had a incubator before so i don't even know what I would hatch, probably so rhode island red chicks as there color is so lovely. Hope your all staying safe, warm and healthy in these troubling times, best of luck for any upcoming projects you guys might have.
Him: *show the eggs and asks what they all are*
My idiotic self *OH MAH GAWD THEY ALL CHIMKEN!!!!*
“How much you spent Him:don’t worry about
Hi from Missouri as well!!!
I was wondering what you think about the Little Giant incubator?
I bought mine at Orshlen's and love it.
Personally I manually turn the eggs and have a a 90% hatch rate.
Hope you all are having a fantastic day when you read this.
If you still want a bealfeader I have 4 rosters you can have if you pad shiping
You never finished your sentence, "what are we going to hatch next???"
You should try hatching showgirl silkies! They're one of my favorites!
I would love to get an incubator, I'm not gonna hatch any birds instead it'll be snake eggs since the incubator can work for them too and I'm from the UK 😁
God no! Bird eggs need to be turned, reptile eggs do not, turning can actually kill reptile eggs. Please get a reptil specific incubator, especially as some species need higher/lower temps than what bird eggs need.
Just get a reptile that likes to eat eggs and feed him all the ones that don’t hatch so they don’t go to waste
Or our pigs. They love them too.
@@whitehouseonthehill ooooo
We would love the incubator! We are planning to hatch some chickens from our neighbors. These could include anything random assortment of chickens, we don’t currently have any chickens and are really excited to try and acquire some this year! We are located in Montana. I hope we get picked and if not I hope the people who do have fun hatching out their eggs!
How much u spent?
Don’t worry about it 😂
Lets GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ONE OF THE FISRT TO WATCH ITHIS
Little tip for eBay bidding!
Always go to an odd amount over what you plan to spend on your maximum. So if you were going to bid 150 then put in 151.99. It works for me almost every time. That way if someone else already has 150 as their bid you would win 😉
How much we spent? Don't worry about it :'D Did you think it was a good idea to use an unknown incubator on expensive eggs? Thanks!
I'm from South Africa and love watching your videos. I want the incubator to hatch quail eggs.
I am from Florida love your show going to hatch chicken eggs
I really need that because I am a first time Hatcher I live in Columbus Ohio in Franklin ave
I’m in Columbus too check out city folks in clintonville
Just bought 1st gen Deathlayer eggs from a breeder who bought their entire bloodline from Greenfire. Super excited to see what I can get to hatch!
Shouldn't you be spending it on avairy netting first? Lol
@roberto Dozens of companies to order netting from.
Why do you care?
Its not your money lol
@@DaybirdAviaries he can't find netting large enough. They are creating an aviary bigger then what there state has..
? He's still looking and with the snow I don't think it's safe for anyone to come out and install fencing. It's also his money hahaha
Dont worry about it 😂😂😂😂🤣
😂

Lol
I would really like to have an incubater. I am a kindergarten teacher from switzerland. We always have to rent one for our kids, because it's a subject they can learn so much about but we don't really have the budget to buy one at the moment. We do hatch some different chickens from the most common hens around here, depending on the year. we have to look up what we can get that is in our budget. the kids just really love it when we have chickens in kindergarten. they stay in a quite room beside our main room, so they aren't in our daily chaos. the kids get to learn about how they grow first inside the egg then outside, how they have to care for them and a lot more about hens and roosters too.
I want to enter the give away, i want to try hatch button quail eggs to start my own quail farming, and i'm from Italy
The guy that asked you to test out that incubator clearly said he wasn't sure how to regulate humidity and temperature, I am not sure why one would be tempted to put eggs that were so expensive in a questionable incubator. Expensive error.
Maybe he was sponsored? Idk
@@KaitlynBurtonISaGOD He didn't claim it, and he said he spent $50 on Amazon.
I'd like the incubator! I live in Texas, and I'm planning on hatching an assortment of chicken eggs. I'm hoping I can keep the temp up if I add another heating element or extra insulation.
Would love to win it.
And my friend is giving me lavender Orpington eggs
And I live in the cold (-30) state of Wisconsin.
