Baby chick pecked by broody hen URGENT!

Thank you for everything in the last few days❤️ I think there’s one more egg in the incubator that should hatch. This is the last time I’m letting a mom sit on a clutch of eggs… staggered hatches are not for me 😓
Having support during sad times is important. It’s easy to get attached, when we’re doing so much to help a chick survive. You were great with your efforts. Please let us know about the next one to hatch. Happier times ahead. 😊

So far no other chicks hatched from the incubator, I broke two eggs that were in the incubator with dead chicks inside. I still have one egg in the incubator that still has veins but hasn’t hatched… the one chick that mama hatched is doing so well! I think it might be pullet☺️ I’ll try again soon for a spring hatch! This time it will be a planned hatch lollll

How late is the last egg? I’d love to see photos of mama and chick! ❤️ I’m sure you’re going to have a great hatch next time. I’ll be happy to see the chicks!

At least a week late I think.. this Sunday if there’s nothing I’m going to unplug the incubator :( definitely learnt a lot during this scatter hatch lol 😆 here’s some pics of mama and baby ☺️. Baby was playing piggy back! I will be so happy if this chick turns out to be a pullet❤️

How old is your baby? My one pullet hatched one baby and they look around the same age!

That’s a very proud mama! Gorgeous chick. ❤️ Thank you for posting the photos. If you’re sure it’s been a week, then it’s not going to hatch. 😞 I’m sorry. Keep me updated with everything, and congratulations for your sweet chick! ❤️
