Well horrible actually. We had a major setback today. On Wednesday night another chicken hatched. It fluffed and everything but does the next day. :( today, an egg exploded. It was horrible. 2 more eggs were trying hatch when I noticed the stink. HORRIBLE!!!! Most ridiculous mess ever. So whie I...
Yes. One pipped last night but idk if she's going to make it. She pipped in the middle of the egg and I saw a bit of blood. I left her be bc I didn't want to hurt her. I'm about to go check on her though.
