I put 25 eggs in the incubator several weeks ago, and over Easter weekend, 21 hatched!   I have 6 black copper Marans, 8 buff Orpingtons, and 7 Ameraucanas (maybe Easter Eggers -- I am not sure).  I just wanted to share their pictures!

Thanks!  I am having a ball with them.  They crack me up.  They are so cute and such stinkers to each other.  When one stretches it leg out to relax, another can't resist pecking its foot and making it squeak.

Here's an updated pictures of one of the Ameraucanas (if that's what it is).  1.5 weeks old......any idea of the color?
