Still waiting on my 9 to pip.  Should be today or tomorrow.  I might have put them into lockdown a day early, but when I candled I already saw a little beak poked through the air cell.  Come on babies, Bear needs a friend!

Came home last night from a night out with the family, and found my only purebred Ameraucana had died. NO idea what happened. I am so sad. Then 45 min later, I noticed my tiny little miracle chick I helped out of her shrinkwrap has a large cyst-like growth on her chest under the skin. It's about the size of a marble, and her breathing was labored. I thought for sure she would die in the night, but she's still kicking this morning. She even looks a little perkier, but the growth is still there. 

 

Any ideas what this might be???

This is the little one that died. I'm heartbroken. I know it's life, but it still sucks!!!

I am so sorry. It's always harder when you lose them after they hatch. She was very cute, again sorry.

1 quarter horse, 1 tuxedo cat, 1 siberian hamsters, 3 dogs, 1 hermit crab, 7 freshwater fish, 5 Brahma chickens, 2 showgirl chickens, 9 silkies, 7production chickens, 12 to be determined bantam chicks, 2 pekin ducks and 1 swedish duck....I should hatch a partridge for the pear tree to round it off.

I lost the one Lemon Cuckoo Orp that hatched. He was fine one minute and gone the next. He was SO tiny.I have more in the bator cooking right now so I hope my luck is better with this batch of shipped eggs. A couple of my home laid eggs have hatched also. A mix of my blue orp and production reds and they are pure yellow????I still have not taken any new pics. The chicks are huge. I cant believe how fast they are growing!

Looking for rare chickens and hatching eggs in Maryland.PM me if you can help.
