    Thinking back now, I dont think it was as big as I thought it was, but I guess that is what I get for shooting it with a water gun....

    INCUBATING w/FRIENDS! w/Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs No problem!

    Okay, thank you. I'm going to get away from the comp a bit and see if I can get him situated. I still need to find my little watering can for him. I dont think a 2 gallon waterer is needed for this one little guy.

    Heh, I have been chased by a deer, and as much as I am ashamed to admit, I have had a tarantula chase me up a tree. Granted I was ALOT younger when he did it.

    I will put a feather duster in there with him. My girls haven't gotten broody yet. Will he eventually fluff up on his own in the brooder? He looks so pathetic right now not being fluffy.

    Sally, he is the only one out of 5 that did hatch. One was unfertile, and the other three didnt make it to lock down, which I am leaning towards the temp being the problem there. So he is in the bator all by himself. I did help him zip, but left him to finish over night on his own. I have...

    Greetings and good morning all. Okay, I finally got my little chick to hatch. Sometime between 3:30 am and 8:00 am CST. However this is what I saw when I got up and checked on "him" He seems to be dry, but has gunk on him still. Plus, I am not sure what is going on with his vent area.

    First Hatch

    I have been studying that article in depth. So far I have helped him with his zip line, waiting to see if he can push out on his own. Still kinda nervous about opening the "cap"

    First Hatch

    An update on Pip, "he" has started zipping, however the membrane is white, and he seems to be having a hard time breaking the shell. Should I help him or let him keep trying. the humidity is staying at a steady 70%.
