4th Annual BYC NYD Hatch-a-long

[Cynthia12]

OK here is my Modern Chicks pix (....chicks on an Eames chair....)

and I have one more that just pipped!

Oh man, I would...not...want...green poop on that chair! Were they good kids..no poop?

Cute babies.

The boys love the NYD chickies. Seven "Baby Kevins"! Hooray.



I'll have you know that brooder was spotless at 7am when I left for work. They've been busy, little buggers.



Thomas sporting the chapped lip look (he's a hand gnawer when playing on the computer)



and Tyler talking to his baby Kevins.

Cute kids, inside and outside of the brooder! Man, that Tyler has eyelashes!!

So an update on my little chick that wasn't standing... It took like, five hours after it hatched, and I had been dipping her beak into brown sugar water to help her perk up.... she's up and walking around, and then laying down and sleeping... not strong enough to be in the brooder yet, but I'm crossing my fingers for the little girl

Well, our last egg died today. Not sure why, it was moving and kicking right before lockdown.

We are a very depressed house right now. This was our third dozen in three months, with zero success, we just dont have the heart to try again.

Glad to see all the other hatched chick pics. Thanks for all the help, advice, and support.

You should try again in the spring.

I'm so sorry. It's so sad to see them fail. It took me months before I could think of trying again. hugs to you.
