    Oh, I forgot to mention one of the White RZock hens in my main pen decided to set and I let her. While I was at it I decided to leave eggs in the nest with my BCM and my CCL. I may just end up with some purebred chicks!

    I do a dry hatch until the lockdown, but I am going to have to do rice or some such thing as well, particularly with the BCM. I am sorry N. I understand your pain. I had one stop before finishing today and I don't know why.

    Ugh. Not a good day for me. I lost the third and the first chick. I have medication in the water now and the feed is medicated. I did get another BCM chick this morning, but the second one didn't make it out of the shell. The yolk is leaking out of it and he isn't moving. Plus, when I went...

    His eyes are fine. I tried to get a picture, but a black chicken just doesn't photograph well, IMHO. He isn't fluffy though except on his butt. It may be because I misted the eggs a few times because the humidity is only about 65% and they seem dry. The one that made an external pip isn't...
