at 8pm i had 5 alohas peeping away in the bator, trying to help the others hatch. with alohas what i do is count set day (normally day 0) as day 1 that way they still technically hatch at 21 days. clear as mud for everyone?

i plan to let those babies hang out tonight and will move them to the brooder in the morning with their brothers and sisters. wont post an update til after work tho.

whoa, 18 babies this morning, and 28 when i got home from work.

all of the pen 4 babies hatched, and i could only find one heat lamp so i put them in the brooder with the pumpkin chicks. being the genius that i am i decided i would put a drop of nail polish on the heads to tell them apart. being the idiot that i am, i chose red. i didnt even realize til i was done that red is the worst color to put on a chicken!! they started pecking, but were too tired from hatching to do any damage. i have them under a red light now so they cant tell.
