Thanks. I had been incubating these eggs too. All that effort just to feed the neighbors cat, such a waste!I feel your pain. Had a chick spend few hours hatching. Moved it to the brooder in the garage (had to open the door to get around truck). Went in the house to get the kids and came back to an empty brooder. I our cat is the queen mouser and birds are a delicacy.
Best to you and the new chicks.
