My NY babies are so very flighty that I can't get any pictures of them. They will NOT stay still. My older silkes on the other hand, are a lot quieter. It's rather muddy in the pen, but that just makes digging for bugs more fun.


It's scary when the weed is almost as tall as you are.

Some are Fluffier than others.

We have at least one internal pip

Not a NYD hatch, but still exciting

Yay!!!! Go chickies go!!!!!

Lost the one that i thought had an internal pip....somehow it was peeping without breaking through the air sack....and i lost another egg that seemingly couldn't break through the airsack but i could still hear faint peeping.....and the Quail egg died also...heartbroken.

I have one with a external pip however

And another one is one its way....i hope i dont loose these two!
