We have pipping and chirping. . . No chicks, yet, but with a little luck. . . We should have a chick or two soon. So excited!

Oh gosh! My daughter is spending the night with her mamaw tonight but she forgot something at home so they stopped back by to pick something up. I was so excited to show her that the eggs were chirping so we went back to the coop to listen and see. The chick has zipped and is in the process of pushing the top off. We watched it move up and down for a minute before I set broody back all the way down (I don't take her off the nest, just lift her slighty and very gently). This is so exciting. My daughter thought it was the neatest thing.

Yall know what this means! Chick has hatched. Apparently, a RIR and BR hen make black sex links. Looks like chick number one will be a roo. Definitely two colors on its head. I couldn't get a pic of it and hold broody, too, so yall will have to settle for this for the time being.

very, very nice! congrats!
 
Thank you. I'm very excited. The little one poked it's head out from under broody this morning, but she hasn't come out all the way yet. We also have another egg actively pipping. I expect if this one comes as fast as the chick yesterday did that we will have another chick by tonight.
