And I have your eggs all together on one side of the bator and mine on the other side.

So happy you have babies hatching so well this time. You finally found the secret ... YAY !!!  And sounds like the broodies are doing well too.

More updates to come. And waiting to hear updates from everyone else.

 

 

 

Two Sophie chicks have been born and are fluffed up.  I was really surprised.....they are not black.  They are partridge.  One is yellow partridge right now and one is black partridge.  Wow!!!!!  Another baby has pipped so I'm hoping it makes it.  I don't know who in the world threw the black chicks.   I'll be on the hunt for her though, LOL!  I don't think the black ones will stay black because Peppie is starting to get silver streaks through his hackles and is changing everyday. Kimmie hasn't started to change yet, but I don't think they came from the same mom.  

I can't wait to see what color your chicks are, especially Yetta's since I never got one to hatch.

Another barn chick was born overnight.  I found an empty shell on the ground that was kicked out of the nest.  I'm sure it was Buttercup's since her egg was pipped yesterday.
