Here is a picture of the naked neck EEer... I think I could enter it into an ugliest chick contest lol.

Congrats on the pip! The one that pipped is probably just resting after getting that initial pip started. It's hard work for the lil guys I think.

WOW! Your naked neck has huge feet!!! He's cute!!!!! This might sound stupid but an EE means an Easter Egger right? What are their tempermants like?

Your other three are sweet! I would be afraid of handling the little little ones....but the larger yellow one, which one is that?? Does he realize his size compared to the tiny ones yet???

Yup EE is Easter Egger. The yellow one is an easter egger as well. The easter eggers are all full size and the mille fleur d'uccles are true bantams so they are tiny in comparison. They seem to all get along great so far.

Here is a video of my first chick hatching. I didn't turn out perfectly but it was the first time I did anything on youtube so please forgive me.

Your video is cute. Thanks. I love watching chicks hatch.... well, I guess we all do and that's why we're here at AA right?

It's a good day for hatching today yes? Let's see some more chicks they should be all coming out soon...

I found that one of the mille fleur d'uccle chicks has a toe problem.

At least it seems to be able to get a round fine and such.

I started a thread about it here: https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=3308593#p3308593

We have a total of 7 chicks out now. I will take some more photos once they dry out and I get em in the brooder.

WOW!!!! I take a little time to get chores done and you guys start hatching like crazy!! I love the pics! No pips or peeps over here yet. We are just at day 19, but I am looking forward to some action soon!! We are going out for a birthday dinner tonight, so that would be prime time for them to sneak a couple of pips in when I am not home.

I am going to watch your video now Eggcellent. Thanks for sharing. OH....and I got my new frig magnet in the mail today.....It says, Chillin' with my peeps!! Very cute.

Well the second one made it out to. We were able to watch it hatch. I did get it on video and will post it later. So the 2/4 that made it to lockdown both hatched and seem to be doing fine. Here are pictures of both of them.
