hatching eggs
Hello all. I will be butchering my flock in mid December and would like to incubate and hatch a new flock around Jan or Feb. Is it possible to get fertilised eggs from breeders then? Whats the norm for hatching in order to have point of lay hens in the Spring? Thanks for any advice.

If you want pullets to be laying in spring you would need to be hatching now.
