Baby Chick Pictures!!!!! POST!

Can anyone help me with leading me to the best hens for setting and hatching the little ones. I do incubate as well but I would like to do both. I heard that Bantam Hens are really good at hatching.
Of course everyone has their anecdotes, but in general, Silkies, Cochins, and Orpingtons are considered good setters on the whole.

I agree with that, bantam cochins are awesome little broads and are much more aware than silkies.

Although they can't fit much under their tiny bodies and wings, American Game bantams are very broody and extremely good parents/teachers.

my Cochin bantam girls are very good broodies. And very friendly
 

My babies scurrying around for cottage cheese and my brave one that tries all new things. She loves that swing always on it.
 
Here are a few pictures of my very first serama egg to have ever hatched. He popped out about 7 p.m. or so this very evening. Now I'm just waiting to see how many of the other 9 do the same. Wish me luck !!!
