SET 7 EGGS, 4 HATCHED, 1 ON THE WAY & 2 DOA.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
That is super fantastic!
 
Happy New year's everyone! I had 3 out of 7 hatch from shipped eggs... So I'm grateful for it. The fact that I got one of each (svart hona, bielefelder, and Dutch bantum) just made it all the more precious. I have them in a cardboard box brooder right next to my bed, and I'm watching them this morning while snuggling my sick kitty. What is everyone planning to do today?
3 is a good hatch! It is sad when only one hatches
 
My broody’s babies are all hatched now, too.

I never expected 100% hatch across the board. Holy crap, I have 29 chicks!!!
It is both good and bad. 29 chicks is too much for me to brood. I would have to find homes for a lot of them
 
I finally had to help, pieces of shell & inner membrane was stuck to them. They are still working on getting out. Nothing like subzero weather. It is so dry! Hope they make it! They chirped at me. I'll be weighing & measuring next time, and getting a hatch cam setup!
I can't wait!
