It's unsteady on its feet, but it's up! Fingers crossed for the little chickie that had a rough start!

@Geckolady Is the chick gaining any more strength yet?

It's not really walking yet. It will get its legs under it and move around. It sort of flops.

Walking a little bit, and curious enough to take a few pecks at the chick crumble! Yay!!!

Now I need quick reflexes to catch the little one because it wants to follow me out of the incubator. I plan to move it into the brooder this afternoon, and get it a few siblings. The other eggs that are in the incubator do not look like they will hatch.

You are it's mamma, so of course it want's to follow you. Yes, a couple more newly hatched chick's will help to pre-occupy it and keep it company. It can learn that it is a chick, and not a human.

I'm starting lock-down today on 14 of the Aloha/Lakeshore hatching egg's today, due to hatch on the 21st. I really hope that those biggest green egg's from those will hatch and hopefully be girl's.

I have the 10 regular Aloha hatching egg's due to hatch on June 4th, and 5 NN/Aloha's due to hatch on June 5th. Then I think I'm going to take a break until at least until the fall.
