I’m so sorry about your baby. I’ve been following along and really hoping your little chick would get better. You took really good care of him/her.

Having support during sad times is important. It’s easy to get attached, when we’re doing so much to help a chick survive. You were great with your efforts. Please let us know about the next one to hatch. Happier times ahead.Thank you for everything in the last few daysI think there’s one more egg in the incubator that should hatch. This is the last time I’m letting a mom sit on a clutch of eggs… staggered hatches are not for me

So far no other chicks hatched from the incubator, I broke two eggs that were in the incubator with dead chicks inside. I still have one egg in the incubator that still has veins but hasn’t hatched… the one chick that mama hatched is doing so well! I think it might be pulletHaving support during sad times is important. It’s easy to get attached, when we’re doing so much to help a chick survive. You were great with your efforts.
