Here are some photos of my little guys. :)

We took a photo of this little guy, he likes to be picked up and doesn't care if his feet dangle, LOL!

So cute!!! I like Lucky the best. :)

You're welcome to join, of course, but did you set on Jan 26th? Because we all set in December so our hatches are already done, my chicks are coming up 2 weeks old almost. :)

I have one faverolle and she is one of my most favorite chickens. She is also nowhere close to bottom of the pecking order, like I feared she might be. She doesn't even seem to care much about the pecking order with the other hens. She comes and goes as she pleases, but never bullies other hens...

Med techs must love chickens. ;)

Eh, people always say that. I worked as a generalist for a whopping 7 months before a heme specialist position opened up at DHMC. I jumped on it, never looked back. I love my department, and 7 months as a generalist DID teach me heaps. But 5 years? If you know what you love, just go for it. :)

Nice! It's a great job, IMO. :) Good luck on your exam. I work in heme, have you got a favorite dept or do you want to be a generalist?

Tee hee! I am about to set the next batch this morning. :)

They're all Dominique crosses. Next round is going to be all the full Dominique eggs in the incubator. :)

I have one that looks almost exactly like that! We named him/her Queso. Yours is cuter. ;)

You are correct, avg is 28 days for ducks. So don't even think about giving up on them until after day 30!!!

What day is it for your eggs?

I wound up having eggs from different hens lose weight at quite different rates, so I set up the other incubator as a hatcher and just moved eggs over from the main incubator as they approached target weight. Some of them were ready for lockdown on day 18, but I had two eggs that didn't go into...

These are two of the last three chicks to hatch, aren't they just night and day? Same mother and father!

I was, but they're out now! I had three more eggs that pipped, and they all have hatched now. Two more eggs are still in the incubator, but I think they are late quitters. Neither of them has pipped, and they are not peeping. They look slouched when I candle them. So, out of 16 eggs originally...

Did someone say more pics? ;) Here are the nine of mine that have hatched so far. :)

I'm sorry to hear that :( But very glad that the rest seem healthy!!!

LOL, I like your reasoning! :)
