Amybalak Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 Hi there, I have just candled my eggs that I thought were all dud and I’ve gone and found one that is still developing- but I’ve just gone and got 6 new eggs to put in and don’t want to mess up this poor little dude. (My kids are hooked on this egg surviving!!?) I don’t want to mess up the new eggs with lockdown for the original surviving egg. But I don’t want to get rid of this poor guy. I think the only solution is to get another incubator for my new eggs. But forking our for a second incubator atm isn’t an option. Hoping to find one to borrow or rent but I don’t know where to look! im in north London btw.... i promise I’d take great care of it and replace it if it did get damaged for something weird reason! i just want some chickens for goodness sake!!!!!

Patricia W Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 Maybe look for someone with a broody who would have the conditions to rear a lone chick? Although you’d have to watch the social distancing guideline aren’t breached in travelling too far etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 There are a few people who do incubator hires, I’m in Birmingham so no use, but speak to your local poultry supplier to see if they do or if they have any chicks due. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
