Baby’s first pip! (I’m baby)

[hammyanne]

It’s day 19 and I noticed my first pip! I’ve been so anxious fussing over the conditions of my Nurture Right (I’ve struggled to get the temperature back up to 99F) so this was a major surprise and relief!

It looks like my Ameraucana is the early bird:

Second pip! This is surely going to be the longest 48 hours of my life

Two successful zips! These two are absolutely bouncing off the walls

I realized the first egg pipped on the wrong end she’s been very active but hasn’t made any progress zipping. I’ll keep an eye on her before assisting.

16 healthy chicks hatched, with one successful assist!

Thank you! Such a nerve wracking experience but of course I found answers to every question here on BYC
