Millet 4,497 Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 ive had loads,litterally ate eggs every day for weeks :sick: .. going to get some more but the price people sell them,i think i will incubate a load of eggs again. By the time you have bought the eggs in and had poor hatch rates which can happen when buying eggs on the net, coupled with the buying of rearing pellets and the cost of electric for the incubator and heat lamp, it may work out cheaper to buy some trios of 6wk old hardened of birds in that are ready to go straight onto the layers pellets.
