    Today we lost one of the chicks, for no reason it seemed fine yesterday then in the evening it was moppie and today, eyes closed, in active and feathers ruffled. The other are running around just fine.

    Thank you, you've heard that necessity is the mother of invention, I could think of nothing else that stays warm 24 hr a day. As of today, all 7 are doing fine and step mom is turning into a real care giver!

    Well, 7 are doing well today! one egg left but I don't think it will hatch, If I don't hear peeping in the morning it will be tossed.

    Well tonight I have 7 chicks under their step mom. One of the water heater chicks was half hatched but didn't make it thru the night, one egg left, no peeping heard.

    In this case, the batam went broody, took the favorite nest to set in and the americanas would just crawl in on top of her lay their egg which would roll in under her and they would leave. LOl

    Well there are 4 peepers today, should be interesting to see what they turn out like, Mom is an Americana and dad is a RIR. Step mom is a black bantam who is now losing interest in the rest of the eggs, so I'm going to try and keep them warm for a couple more days and see if anything happens...

    Would running a fan in the coop help?
