Pearl lives up to her name, a Pearl of great price.

I laughed at your "for now"... that's a running joke in our family. Everything has a place "for now" but doesn't always find a different location :D;):lol:

I just realized something. If eggs in the incubator and under Tamar actually hatch later this week :fl then the age difference between Martha's brood and the new ones will be about 6 weeks. The age difference between the Speckled Sussex and the Dominiques is also about 6 weeks.

Show him the egg size...

Blue band has not developed red wattles like the others, yet...I'm hoping she's a pullet. The one in the middle ⬆️

That's blue band. From almost 2 weeks ago ⬆️

Wow article about hatching, by @Pyxis https://www.backyardchickens.com/articles/guide-to-assisted-hatching-for-all-poultry.72886/

I miscounted, Day 18 is not Monday, but TUESDAY. I think I will add shelf liner at that time, and do one more candling. :fl

This article contains everything I was wondering about, and more. Thank you SO much for taking the time to create this resource.

I was so glad that Martha never rejected Little Chick after he was injured, twice. Although he's a little smaller he's acting like the others now, no more crying. ⬆️⬆️ LC is on the left.

Waddayathink, possible girl? The chick in the middle, both photos ⬆️ :fl

Too stinkin' cute! :love Why did they all have to be boys??? :he

Hannah is still being a 💩 I check my coop every night at dark, and again I saw the Dominiques on the A-frame roost. Hannah was in the middle of the main roost, preventing the Doms from hopping over. She also was staring at Martha and her chicks but not doing anything. I moved Hannah to the far...

I would love to see a photo of that setup.

Where there's a will... I read an article here on BYC about a hen who tried to hatch something like 25 eggs.
