BackYard Chickens - Learn How to Raise Chickens

Aww can't wait to see a chick! The most advice I have is to be patient and don't rush things. It's best to look in the incubator as little as possible, just so you don't drive yourself crazy. haha I am sure everything will work out really well with your chick(s). Can't wait!

Thank you so much! Tomorrow is day 22. I’m definitely going to be checking back here if there’s been no progress

Update: no chick yet but I candled and it’s still alive

It’s starting!!!! Oh my gosh!!!

Awwwww, keep me posted please!!

It’s made some progress! It’s not poking a head or a beak out yet that I’ve seen but I am leaving it alone so I’ve only checked twice this morning and each time it’s been more cracked! I’m also playing chick noises for it lol

I do the same! Come on chickie!!!

The chick is out and alive! Almost been twenty four hours! My son woke up in the middle of the night to check on it and let the cat in. The cat loves other animals. But obviously lacks knowledge in how to care for a baby chick. Knocked the incubator out of the built in wall closet and I heard it and instantly woke up and ran in. Chicky is somehow still alive this morning and doing fine it seems.
