It's a shame more of them didn't hatch because the 3 that did hatch are all beautiful birds.

beautiful little babies!
Glad they're doing well!

Good luck to your son with his mini-hatch! We'll be rooting for them, let us know how they're doing please.

My goodness are those some cute babies!

That is upsetting. It's never easy to remove a lifeless chick from the incubator or brooder. Sadly it's part of life. It sounds like you had a great conversation with your son about how precious life truly is.
I'll be rooting for his mini hatch!
Keep us updated please!

Interestingly Lizzie was born first, the Tux was second and the GH bird was third, yet it is the largest bird.

I took the babies out of the brooder for a run-around and some fresh air. They are snuggled back up in the brooder now after their adventure.
