My brooder is finally set up and almost ready for my chicks to make their grand appearance. Lol

That's awesome!

Awesome upcycling of the crib

Thanks! I have hardware cloth along both open sides where the bars are to keep the chicks inside.

I love it when they hatch like that! Shells getting knocked out into the incubator!

You have very healthy chicks hatching.

Thank you

It's out 10-15 minutes to zip and hatch
It was externally pipped for a tad over 14 hours. Relived the first one is out so it will make the others get a move on.

Sorry for pic quality, they are in the nasty incubator for hatch as I have Tolbunt polish in the Brinsea on day 8. I couldn't cope with a staggered hatch! It's not a great incubator for pics

Ok...so my two that have hatched will NOT leave each other alone - like pecking the crud out of each other and they're chirping like they're hysterical but they keep beating each other up!!! How do I get them to stop!? I'm afraid one is going to get really hurt soon!

Is it an orpington?

It's a sex linked hybrid called a "Columbian black tail" over here in the UK. If it dries fully yellow it's a male but if it has a brown tinge to its a female.

for a brown tinge!
