This is RC my Rescue Chick. Blue had abandoned the nest w/this chick 1/2 hatched. It became very cold and shrink wrapped. I brought it in & put in incubator. After it warmed up a bit I put drops of water on it & carefully pealed off the dried membrane & chips of shell. Took a long time for RC to...

This is Blue w/her 2 babies. A 3rd one survived but is in the incubator getting stronger.

This is Mi'a out doors w/her remaining 6 chicks. Our friend who got us started w/some of her chickens is starting over. Shared some of my 2mo old chicks w/her and some of Mi'a's babies. I left her 3 Silky's, 2 Black Cochin mix, 1 EE. First thing she did was take a dirt bath. Wasn't too long...

This is Gracie w/some of her fostered chicks. A Salmon Faverolle, an (sp??) Aracana?, 2 EE chicks and a White Crested Black Polish. There is also a Silver Laced Wyandotte. She actually hatched a Silky, but it was so small it was ignored so I brought it in the house & put in Brooder box w/some...

This is Mi'a w/some of her 10 babies. Blue Cochins, Cochin mix, 1 EE & 3 Black Silky. She hatched 4 of them, and is doing a great job of Fostering 6 others.

This is Blue, my Blue Cochin hen (she is close to being black). She's hatched a Cochin mix and an EE chick. Still has 3 Cochin mix eggs under her. 2 are pipped. Hope to have 3 more chicks by morning.

My youngest babies have been eating out of my hand all day. Love it. Now they are all tired out w/full crops and it's sleepy time! Almost 1 wk old except for the Silky you can see wing feathers on. It's almost 2wks old.

Well, we always thing we have enough and are going to quit incubating. But now....that the Showgirl is ready to be a Rooster, I'm thinking of putting him & my White Silky together in a coop and incubating her eggs! Trouble is she isn't a consistant layer. I'll get 2 - 4 eggs from her then she...

I'm in the upper portion of southern Missouri. If you know where Springfield MO is, I'm an hour and 1/2 north on the shores of Pomme de Terre Lake. The EE chick with the attached egg sack sadly didn't make it. The rest of the chicks are thriving. I mentioned I have a White female Silky & a male...

These are my babies. 6 new ones and one that is a week old.The wk old chick is at the food cup, both pictures. Hoping the other 3 eggs will hatch. Haven't given up on them yet.

The Cochins & EE's hatched on day 21. The Silkies hatched on day 22. Today is day 22. I still think there is a chance that 2 of the 3 eggs left will hatch. The Cochins are walking on the Silkies. One of the EE's had quite a good size egg sack still on it at hatching. Wonder why when it's the...

2 Cochin mix, 2 EE's 2 Silky. The Silky to the left is actually from last weeks hatching. The second Silky to hatch today is still in the incubator drying out. Last weeks Silky is so much smaller than the other chicks the Brood Momma is caring for it kinda gets ignored or left out. Brought him...

Yesterday I had 2 Cochin mix, & 2 EE's hatch. By 7AM today a Black Silky hatched. The second Silky egg only had a tiny push against the egg, same as it's been for 2 days. But by 8:35 AM it was hatched!! So I've 6 babies, with 3 eggs left. I put the eggs to my ear & tapped on the shell. In 2 of...

These are 2 Cochin mix. There is an EE chick in the incubator but it's still wet. Pictures taken through the plastic are just too fuzzy to post. 2 more eggs are pipped so should hatch soon.

I have chicks due to hatch tomorrow. I've 3 eggs pipped since I came home from work today. One of them I'd marked with a ?, glad to see it's a good one. I can hear them peeping. One egg pipped on day 18, and I think it died the same day. I never heard it peep. There are: 2 Silky, 3 EE, & 4...

See if this will help. http://www.poultryhelp.com/spraddle.html I don't know if it will work on older chicks or not. Two of my Silkies had splayed legs. One was OK after about 6 hours, the other after a couple days.

Good chick pictures one and all! Thanks for sharing.

Tonight I moved 3 six wk old Cochins out of the Brooder. My Momma Cochin who has the 1 Silky baby was looking all over the shed for the missing older babies! I set a 3 wk old Silver Laced Wyandotte on her back (which promptly burrowed into her feathers to hide) and that calmed her down. I just...

Glad you explained!! Sure does look like a 2 headed chickie!! Good picture.

Cool video. I kept wanting to help the chick kick out. Also wanted to reposition the camera to see the other egg that was hatching!
