Baby Sylvie’s foot seems to have corrected itself overnight and I’ll move them both to the brooder tonight. Just popping them under the heat cave seems to work well when adding similarly aged chickies

Happy birthday!!! 🎂

My Polish cross hatched sometime today and I’m not sure if it’s a curled foot or injury? I’ll put a boot on anyway, but I’d love any thoughts

It is!!!! That’s so cool!

Horrible pictures 😂😂😂

One of my girls heard frantic pre-hatch peeping and we stayed up late to watch this soggy bean hatch 😍 Considering my roo colours, it looks like a full D’uccle!

Ooooh that will be so fun to watch!

I have a single porcelain D’uccle egg that’s been pipped all day, it’s a rolling and a rocking away and I’m dying of excitement. Hoping it’s pure 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼 Not sure how far along the Polish egg with it is, but should be within the week. Some day I’ll remember to label lol

These chicks are super active!!!! I’ve never had such a fun group in the incubator. They were very excited to get into the brooder tonight and I hope they stay this friendly

Sneaky peek on my way to bed and last chick is here! Blue 🎉

One last egg to go, it was busily zipping away when I put the kids to bed. I nice mix of blue and black Marans. Wish there’d been a splash 😅 But I’ve got a good selection of lighter WTB and olive eggers just coming into the growout pens, so next year should be fun!

Four babies and the last four eggs are pipped, I’m so pleased with my new incubator. Consistently gives me better hatch rates so far 🤞🏼

All fluffed up and begging for cuddles 😍

And someone was a speedy zipper! Blue and from one of the darker eggs, it will be a keeper for sure. I want to swap out my roos next year

5 pips! Possibly a 6th, but it’s at the wrong end and might just be a blip I didn’t notice 😅

Lockdown tomorrow! Debating giving them to broodies if they hatch, my Cochin and silkies have been very determined sitters. I have 6-7 broodies right now, but only the three that I’m confident will stay broody long enough. Maybe if I give them chicks, they’ll let us use the nest boxes again lol...

A local chicken tender posted a rainbow pack of hatching eggs and had lovely dark browns… Somehow a dozen dark brown eggs ended up in my hands and fell into the incubator! I don’t know what happened 😂
