April 2020 Hatch-A-Long! All are welcome!

Be careful what you wish for. I was dying for the first broody chicken to start sitting and hatch eggs and out of the blue at the same time I had two. They are do Monday or Tuesday and today the remainder of the small breed chickens Dutch bantam, OE and sebright are broody too. More babies for may :wee :love:celebrate:gig
 
One hatched 5am Friday morning and one 5pm friday night. So it’s been 16 hours with no action. I might be seeing wiggles in one of the eggs, but that was the one I thought had stopped developing.



Those colors are sooo cool!! I love it! I thought the bottom one was a keet or something 😂


I would leave them in there it hasn't even been 24 hours yet.

It looks like a keet 😂 It's a death layer and golden comet cross... How these colors came out I don't even know 🤷🏼‍♀️

It's coloring looks pretty much like a Deathlayer chick. Slightly more striping on the eyes. I haven't had any so I base this off internet pictures. It's beautiful! Also reminded me a bit of my Barnevelder chicks. It'll be an exciting one to watch feather out.

I'm hoping that it's a female so that I can keep it because it is absolutely stunning. I've never had any deathlayers as chicks so I'm unsure what they look like. It's the only one that's that coloring.

It's hard building a coop with these ducks 😂 they keep trying to eat everything.

Moved my broody to her hatching spot and she is NOT HAPPY WITH ME. luckily all of her eggs are in the incubator. I just let her go crazy today, I’ll check in an hour or so and see if she has settled. 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻. I should be getting internal pips tonight so I really need her to settle. Think good and comforting thoughts for her.
