American serama thread!

Share away, we all love to see cute pictures! CONGRATULATIONS! 21 days is about right for hatching...this is the hard part...waiting......... :pop
We have been waiting for a year, and one of the Serama hens finally went broody! :yesss: We set 7 eggs with her on Monday night. :ya I have heard conflicting info about incubation time. Is it 19 days or 21 or does it vary? Will a broody hatching eggs make a difference in the timing? Yay, she's broody! My son labeled the eggs and "fed" them to her one at a time, after taking away her very warm golf ball. So many eggs, so little room. No more golf ball for you! Oh boy, an egg!!! She quickly tucked it away. Here are some more! It's tight, but they all fit. We have to check the nest daily because another hen lays her eggs here. She just has to, for some reason! :he She doesn't like being disturbed, but doesn't bite. Good girl! :) This is the papa with one of the "egg donors." The rooster goes in to check on the broody several times a day. He is very gallant and attentive. Sorry about the loooong post, but we are very excited and had to share! :weee

Thank you! Yes, waiting.... At least I don't have to agonize over incubator temps and humidity. I would obsess!

Is broodiness contagious? There seems to be another glued to a golf ball! Yay, more chicks!
