BYC's 13th Annual New Year's Day Hatch-Along - 2022

What breed is Regal? She's cute!

My baby chick "Regal" likes to sit by my face, but makes a big stink if I try and pick her up. She thinks that is weird.
We are sitting on the couch and having cheese, salmon, salami, apple, and crackers. I gave her a bit of the salmon and crackers. And sips of egg water.

Final count, 5 babies hatched. My shipped eggs, I did get one sweet baby. Odds are its a he, white silkie, so I named him Blizzard. The others are Hennifer, Huricane (frizzled chick), Sugar Bubble, and Sparkle. Yes, the children helped with the names. Names are free and it's fun!

We're at 6 bresse farms chicks hatched. And one is chipping away at one pipped shell to break out another.

I had most of mine hatch today. I had put in 3 silkies, 5 Sussex/Andalusian mix. One silkie overnight last night, 6 today and one silkie that was a bit behind still waiting for them to pip. I hat to help the most recent one out as it was stuck after pipping in the same position, the membrane was stuck to it

Regal is LO/EE and this is her sister, Regae. She just hatched. Even if you help a chick out (day 21) It is best to leave that bottom part of the egg on the chick so the chick gets strong legs kicking it off.
