They look good John. Do you have covers for the hatching trays? I can't imagine hatching without the covers as the chicks would be jumping out and all over the place. If not, how deep are the sides of the trays?

No. The baskets/trays are 4" deep and I don't think a day old chicken chick can get out. Also, there is only a 1/2" gap between the tops of the 2 bottom baskets and the bottoms of the 2 top baskets so except for the top basket the chicks wouldn't be able to squeeze out between them...if that makes any sense.
Max:
SWEET!! Where did you get the trays? I would like to find some like that for my GQF to replace the wooden ones I built. They are 4" deep but you know how hard the wood can be to clean...

Thanks! BTW your craftsmanship is amazing! I am a machinist/tool & die maker/cnc mill programmer/supervisor by trade so I know quality work when I see it. And it's made in the USA!!
