    I don't consider myself a hatching expert by any means, but I used to have pretty good luck hatching chicken eggs, but this year has been a disaster!

    Spread out legs! Help!

    I am new at hatching keets! I've hatched chickens, but new to keets. This is my second hatch (the first hatch went fine), and I have one keet whose legs are really spread apart. Do I need to try to tie them together a little? He seems to have difficulty getting them under him. I have put paper...
