I just came home from work and peeked in the incubator. One of the eggs had a pip hole and it looked really wierd, so I grabbed it and closed it again right away and took a look at it. There were a bunch of foam bubbles coming out of it! I've heard people say that they've had babies drown...

I don't have a problem w/my Brahma roo picking on any of the smaller chickens. We only have 1 Brahma and a lot of EE, polish (std), cochins (std & bnt), NN's, silkies, RIR's most are still only 2-4 mos old. He doesn't mess w/them at all. He's so loving and...

Yea! My babies have hatched! Only 8 out of 20 shipped eggs, though. I'm really kinda disappointed about that. BUT! I will take pics and post them. I was taking pics of my Button Quail yesterday and the camera died the 3rd bird in, so I had to stop to charge the batteries and when I finished...
Yep, I'd blame your sister, too. LOL! ;)
