I put a small stuffed kitty in there (I know, a cat in with the chick not too good, but figured if she was going to live at this house might as well get used to it as I have 3 cats) and she is climbing on it but still chirping. Dang it all, if the other 2 eggs don't hatch soon it is going to...

Her toes are already uncurled and she is walking around already. Wobbly but walking. And chirping very loudly. I think she is lonely. Any ideas?

Ummmm, dinner. Yeah, I guess I should feed my family.

The egg she hatched out of was brown. Of the other two eggs in the bator one is a greenish color and one is greenish brown. So EE means any breed that lays colored eggs?

Not even sure what EE means, LOL. I am new to this, just got our first chicks last spring and wanted to try from scratch this year. Guess you could say I am hooked. The chickens are supposedly for my oldest son (the one in the pic), he wanted a way to make a little money. So he sells the...

Should I put the chick back in the incubator once I have it out of the shell or straight under the heat lamp?

The other 2 eggs have not shown any signs (no peeping or movement) of hatching yet. Today is day 20. I am going to go help this poor chick now. Keep your fingers crossed for me and wish us luck.

I have a chick that pipped in the middle of the night. Around 5:30am there was about a dime size hole. At 8:30am the hole was huge, almost half way around the egg. The shell is broken off in that part and you can see the membrane (white). Part of the chicks wing is out of the shell and dried...
