We have hatchling! I'm not sure what yet, but I see some Marans @SilksterTN

Did you keep the marked eggs separate? The olive eggers will be sex linked Looks like a good hatch!

No, no separation. These are all for me though, so I'm not too worried about it. It's kind of hard to see, but i think there are 1 splash, 2 blue, 2 black Marans. 1 female OE and then a couple Ayam Cenani x Marans crossesof my own. Very good looking birds, nice and spunky. It's still "early" too so I'm sure there'll be more this afternoon.

All of the OE will be blue. That sorta makes it more of a guessing game LOL I'm glad they are hatching well for you

Here they are! Well, 5 out of 6 anyway. The 6th duck literally just hatched a few minutes ago, so he's still in the incubator for a while. One little guy was shrink wrapped all night. When we went to bed, he was almost out of the shell, so i didn't think much of it. This morning he was still half way out with his head stuck to one end of the shell and his back stuck to the other. I should have just taken the shell off real quick before bed, ugh. He's good now, though.

The 6th duck is yellow, so I have 4 fawn & white, and looks to me like one blue and one black runner? All of the blue/black runner duckling pictures on google don't have any yellow on them, but mine have yellow chests. Is that weird?

Yellow chest usually means it will be bibbed. Where The yellow is will be white feathers.

Agree with the bibbed thing. They will be beautiful when they grow up! Little cuties

Queen Chloe thought she was going to be the only cat at this new place. King arrived yesterday and she's just been staring at him ever since.

Does she have hearts or darts in those eyes.

I think she's a bag of mixed emotions. On one hand, her buddys back, but on the other she knows she can no longer sleep on the beds because King likes to leave "parcels" under the blankets
