You guys had a lot of creativity going on today! Nice job on the poem!

I've failed miserably at obtaining flapper photos... so here's one from last winter, a chicken running with "turbo" (flapping) who wiped out on ice.
My official submission:

i just added a few photos from a hatch a while back that show the sequence of a chick hatching from the egg to the NYDH BYC Page.

Check them out here:

I like the pics in the Brinsea. A different type of hatch to watch when they hatch upright and pointy end down!

That's why I added to yours

Different perspective.

These ducks I have are so energetic. They are literally running in a herd from one end of the brooder to the other, directly through the water. I'm not sure if they're part "runner" duck or not, but they are incredibly energetic and cute.
