    Raising our Easter Chicks 🐥💐🐥

    Mine are not staying long and will be going to a friend’s house. However I get to enjoy the little baby noises until they do. They were very curios about what that strange thing was in their brooder. (My phone)

    17th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-Along

    No, these were from my own flock. I will possibly get my shipped eggs next week. :D

    Shuffling eggs

    @Ezana4CE Sorry it was a busy weekend! I ended up with 13 of the 14 hatching. The one that didn't make it, pipped but never zipped. Once the final egg hatched I removed it to check (within 24 hour window) and it has already passed. When it pipped it did not puncture the membrane so it may...

    17th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-Along

    My hatch is complete! 13 of the 14 that went into lockdown hatched. The one that didn’t make it had pipped, but never zipped. I pulled it last night and opened. Baby seemed to be in the right position but the initial pip didn’t break through the membrane. It wasn’t shrink wrapped and to my...

    First Time Candling, I'm Not Sure If I did It Correctly

    I bet you start seeing more and more pips as the day goes on. The first pip I saw yesterday morning was the first to hatch last night. Come on little eggies you got this! Rest Pip... rest zip!

    Shuffling eggs

    I am at the end of my first hatch in my Maticoopx20 and the only shuffling I did was removing a tray and consolidating down to 3 trays as when I pulled eggs that didn't make it. They started hatching yesterday and I have 4 left to hatch. So far I really like this incubator.

    Went to bed with 2 and woke up to 10! 4 left to hatch and they have all pipped. When they all get moving around it is like popcorn in there. 🥰

    I LOVE crested chickens! I am hoping to get a few eggs from a friend for my next hatch.

    Yes this is my first hatch ever! I really needed this little joy today. We had to help one of our dogs over the rainbow bridge this afternoon. So this little one hatching a little early was just what I needed to smile tonight.

    Lots of Pips today and now I have my first chick hatched! I checked on them just in time! I have a timelapse but I haven’t posted a video before so here is baby’s first photo.

    17th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-Along

    AhhHaHA I have seriously thought about it, but my desk sits center of the room and I am not willing to take the chance that the cord would get pulled. My dog is not the most graceful being on this planet. He is 170lbs of goofball.

    Just for fun - What breed?

    Interesting, I hadn't looked at the Midnight Majesty. I was leaning towards Mystic Marans. It makes sense they are the same cross, BCM and Barred Rock. I am 95% certain that we got them at FFaH. They typically purchase from Hoovers I believe and they offer the Midnight Majesty. She is a...

    17th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-Along

    Mine sit about 4 feet from my office desk. So it is easy to roll over there and take a look.
