Thanks all for your comments on my lavender chick. It was the only one of four that hatched but I have a new batch of lavenders in the incubator so I'm hoping for more!

Sorry, but it looks blue to me. A real cutie though!  Here's a picture of a newly hatched lavender chick.

Peep - Thanks for the picture! Blue is good too! :-)  Do you sell hatching eggs? Your babies are beautiful! (I do mean all your pictures, adults and babies!). I did have two lav chicks that looked just like that pic, but they both didnt make it. It was crushing! :*( Still more in the bator... we'll see what comes!

Thank you! I will likely have eggs to sell this fall. Just busy collecting my flock right now!

All my lavenders are in the incubator right now except the sweetie that I posted a photo of last night, so I'd better not count my chickens before they hatch! lol
