Christmas is coming early Hatch-A-Long!

YAY, HIONI!

 

[GreenJay]

Hioni, Candy Cane, Matana, and Icecicle are in the brooder, the older chicks have taught them to eat and drink already! That was cool they all seem to be doing well together.

Frosty and Hope are still in the incubator, Hope was the last to hatch so she's still not fully fluffed and Frosty is still doing a lot of sleeping and still can fluff a little more as well.

Here are some chick portraits

Would you look at that? Fruitcake looks like she has a piece of candied fruit on top of her head!

She sure does! Very fitting name

Everyone is in the brooder and doing well! Hope was the last to hatch and is dry but not fluffed, she'll get there!

Nom nom nom!


Max is saying: Hey! Your feets are in the food!

PS: I'll clean the brooder out tomorrow, I have a bunch of chick starter all over the puppy pad but it's getting rather contaminated with all the little stinkers droppings.

Merry Christmas Eve everyone! Thank you all so much for following along on my crazy hatch, for all your kindness, the fun, and the advice. It truly has been a blessing and the best gift I could ever dream of for Christmas!

My plan is to keep this thread going until the end of the year then I'll move back over to my "Silkie Saga" thread and you are all welcome there!

Chickie update

Star!



Grinch, just wanted to take a nap



Max kept trying to run away, but check out the feather growth! He's even sprouting shoulder feather already!



Noel, she's looking less gangly now and her colors look really cool! Her feathers are growing really quickly too.
