Can't wait to see all those hatched babies. Will you be up all night? I know I would.

So what's the final count on your chicks? I know you must be so busy taking care of them all!

Oooo! I'm sorry. Would you believe they are STILL hatching!
I took the hatched ones out yesterday and moved the live unhatched eggs outside under broody hens (the incubators were nasty).
Not sure exactly how many there are, havent counted yet --- 3 brooders full.

OMG, I can't wait to see this.

That is going to be a lot of cleaning also.

Hi! It was a terrible hatch! I think it qualifies as the WORST hatch ever (or in recent memory, anyway).
Out of A L L those eggs, only about 80 hatched. Lost those 2 that hatched w/out absorbing their yolks and had to put down several that had twisted legs. Way too many pipped and died or didn't pip at all.

But *sigh* I got a few chicks. Here are some of them.
Some Ameraucana (black/blue/splash):

some Rocks (blue/black/barred/blue barred):

some from the barred green-egger pen (barred/splash barred/blue barred/??):

some silver Campines:

some from the Frizz NN green-egger pen (splash/blue/??):

some barred/blue barred NN:

2 wheaten Serama and 1 mottled Cochin:

and some blue/white Silkies:

Got a group of 4 doz due tomorrow (got a couple Silkies and Serama out already --- yay!).
Set a doz-ish under hens the 1st and the 7th and then set 13 doz more yesterday.
