Can You Hatch ONLY Hens?
Is it possible to only hatch hens? We tried hatching more hens than roosters by testing three variables: by setting only round eggs, by storing hatching eggs at 40*F for 8 hours, and by maintaining an incubation temperature .5*F less than the standard recommendation. We ended up with 16 healthy chicks! The mixed breeds of these chicks make it more difficult to determine gender until they reach maturity, and you can see each chick at 1 day old and 1 week old. We’ll tell you about some characteristics of each mixed breed that help identify their gender and show you our best guess for each chick. Follow them in their journey to adulthood to see if our experimental variables helped us hatch more hens than roosters!
