HI there, Just to let you all know that over this weekend 13 chicks have hatched! I am so pleased, thank you all for advise. I was so worried this time last week and now I have learnt how hardy chicks can be to survive a novice like me! I have learnt so much from this experience. So 13 out of 19...

Thank you this is all so helpful and slightly encouraging to that I might still have some chicks at the end of all this. Glad to be reminded that lock down is day 18 and not 17 as I was thinking, so that gives me a bit longer to run it dry. Egg box idea is a good one also. Thank you

I have taken on two Marans (is that's how you spell it) from my sister. They seem happy but have stoped laying since moving to me!

Hoping to learn lots from other chicken people x
