Mission Control...we have LIFTOFF!!! Ooops, I mean LOCKDOWN!

I don't know if you started a thread for hatching your EE with people. If not, I started one, if you want to join along. There are a lot of people on it with hatches all over the place. If you look in my subscriptions, you will see it. I think the name of it is setting eggs 3/6. Anyone want to join or something like that. If you have one going, I can come over there too.
I think your humidity sounds great. I thought I read somewhere as long as you were within a 10 - 15% range of what is best it would turn out good.
Here's to happy hatching

I meant to tell you, your pictures are adorable. Is that Miss Pretty in the first 2? What kind of chicken is "she"? What kind are the last 2 chicks in the balcany?....BTW-THAT is the cutest picture!


It is Miss Pretty in the first one. The feathers on her feet and bottom don't look the best. While I was taking care of her, the only way I could get her to eat and drink was to constantly mix the chick starter with water and make it really mushy and she would walk through it. And then she kept getting pasty butt since her food and water ratio wasn't regulated and I kept having to take her in and wash her. She looks better nowadays, but you can still tell. I was just looking at her bottom today and it still looks odd. She'll get her big girl feathers and be all prettified again! The second and third pictures are of the little EEs I bought to go with her. I'm so glad that is what I ended up buying. They are the sweetest things. The day I went to get them I had put in calls to three different people and when I was leaving to go out the door to buy standard Brahmas, this person called so I changed my mind and took off to buy these and then in route to get these chicks, someone called me about silkie chicks. At that point in time, I just wanted chicks to go with Miss Pretty so she would stop screaming her head off.
