Did your baby hatch out Midwest??? I was off line for a few days as we were having router issues of wich none was on our end of the line. Post photos of your babies!!!!
I was shocked to go in and heck them this morning to find little pin feathers poking out of their little tiny wings already!!!!!! They are growing up too fast
I almost cant wait till they are a week and a half old so I can introduce themt o the grass in their little baby yard we made hehe
I hatched 3 in my incubator yesterday morning. I had anxious little ones in the egg.. it too a total of 3 hours for all to get out after they started in earnest. 2 had pipped the night before. Hatch time is sooo exciting and frustrating at the same time
I LOVE living so close to where I am working. Me and the human baby got back to my house just in time to watch the last of the eggs hatch out. It is such a wonderful thing to watch them come out of those eggs.
I think it is time to set a few more eggs LOL
congrats on the new !!!!!
I am still inlove with my little babies. If I could I would get me a little basket and tote them everywhere with me LMAO Others might look at me a little strange though when they heard peeping coming from it
Kiwi... that is EXACTLY like my Martha hen!!!!! If you find out what breed she is can you pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease let me know???
Two of them are gonna have feathered feet like their Cochin Momma.. it is soo cute to see the chickie fuzz on their little feet.
They are wonderful babies. They come...
all threee I set hatched!!!!! They are all adorable and doing wonderful. I did get photos up on another thread hehe it is the one OHOTOS (was so excited I spelled it wrong) OF THE NEW BABIES
2 of them are going to have feathers on the feet like their momma does (momma is chocin and daddy is RIR)
Thank you all. The daddy is Rhode Island Red and the momma of 2 is a gold and black Chocin.. I am not sure what the momma to the 3rd one is.. all I know is she is black with gold feathers sprinkled around her neck.
the 2 from the cochin are the ones with duckling markings on their back. I am...
This is the first egg that zipped.. the other 2 pipped the night before and were doing all the rocking but this little one pipped zipped and popped right out in a matter of 40 mins start to finish.
The is the same chick from above all hatched and getting nice and dry. I have decided to all...
I have heard of people who have had to basically put their broodys in jail to break the broody cycle. They have a smaller pen they put the broody hen in and keep her away from the others for a few days.. they said it works like a charm for them to break up a broody hen
CONGRATS!!!!!! I just hatched out 3 beautiful babies this morning. from the first one to pip it took about 3 hours. Now all are resting, peeping and getting all fluffy!!!! I cant wait to get them into the brooder where I can handle them!!!!
OMG I am so doing the happy dance now!!!! One of the eggs has completely hatched and there in its place is a happy healthy very active little chick!!!!!!!! I cant wait for the others to catch up and break out of them shells!!!!!!
as of right now all 3 of the eggs are pipped!!!!! all is quiet in there right now and I only saw a teeny bit of wiggling from one of the eggs. I have a feeling I will be walking back and forth from my neighbors house to mine with the baby to check on these new ones all day long HAHA
I have to figure out how to post photos of the darlings on here and I sure will post some!!!!
It is beyond heart warming when they start to move more nad harder.. Kinda like they are saying.. "Momma.. I am working on it.. I hear ou and want to get out to be with you!!!!"
I only set 3 eggs as this is my first time trying to hatch anything. They are a cross between rhode island red (daddy) and a gold and black chocin. I cant wait to see what they look like!!!
I am litterally sitting on my hands at time to keep from messing with them now that they have pipped. I...
2 of mine are pipped right now. One of them is doing some serious rocking in that egg so i am thinking one it gets a good angle on it there will be no time before it pops right on out!!!!
I am impatiently waiting for this baby!!!!!!
I am so excited.. today is hatch day and I have 2 of the 3 eggs I set pipped and rocking around the bator!!!!!! TONS of peeps coming from the eggs so all is well as of right now. I am soooooo hoping to wake up to new chicks.... if I even sleep for the excitement of it all. Someone tell me how to...
Today is my little ones hatch date and I think I heard a few little peeps from the bator and saw a few wiggles but nothing major has happened yet. I am keeping everything crossed that in the next day or so I have some babies!!! Bator has been on lock down since Saturday the 22nd after I made...
