My entry for Sumatra503's Cutest Chick Hatched Photo Contest
"What do you mean...I"M THE ONLY ONE THAT LOOKS LIKE THIS!!!!", shouted the splash barnie chick as he realized he's the only one who's white!

LOL, I'm keeping an eye on that chick! He was pecking at all the hatching eggs and wet chicks in the bator. Maybe he just wanted something to eat?

Good Morning and Happy New Year:) I have 30 chicks out, 2 pipped and 8 eggs to go. I still only have one splash chick with only 2 eggs left that could produce another. Luck was with 2 of the chicks that hatched during the night. Both had pipped in the small end of the egg and both bled quite a...

LOL, we were wondering what the booming noise was I just thought it was something on the tv Oh well maybe someone else will set more off AT 12o'clock instead of 8 something

We'll see how these chicks look:) Maybe soon.... Hate to keep everyone waiting, but really they are...
All set, locked down and sitting on my hands LOL. I have 40 eggs set to hatch (only removed 2 early on)... I couldn't resist and added some extra eggs that were laid the next day and ended up setting more than my original 35. So, I'll have a slightly extended hatch. My blue boy must of done a...

I candled tonight. But... so far 33 of 35 are doing great. Only two had blood rings. We had several below freezing mornings and the eggs could of froze before I got to them. I'm "winging" it on this incubation as my digital humidity/thermometer died on me. I'm just relying on my trusty...
NYD Hatching!!! I set 35 eggs from my Blue Barnevelder project today at 11am. for lots of blue chicks!
Most of the eggs are out of my Barnevelder hens. But 8 are out of my Blue pullet. It will be a sibling mating with the pullet being a 1/2 sister to the cockerel. But I would like to see If...
