I do, I do. My chicks are due to hatch on Feb 11. I use an old aquarium as the brooder. Just cleaned it out in anticipation of a successful hatch.

And Im blogging my experience

I have 2 chicks that have hatched so far today and 6 eggs with pips. Lots of other eggs to go.
It sure is hard to get a good picture in the Brinsea, but here is one little cutie.

Thank you for the welcome, and good luck on all your hatches! Congradulations on all the new little peeps too!!

Yay my eggs came!!!

Not a single one broken!!! Now just to wait until I can put them in the bator!!!

 

[Kelly G]

Yeahhhhh, Daisy!!!!!! And you were all worried! Congrats!!!!! And you did great on your photo!

Hey, you guys, here's a quick photo tip...

If you can take the photo a little above (like Daisychick did) or below (like I did...I tilted the camera towards the ceiling just a bit) - and not straight on....you'll eliminate most of the glare from the flash. It's hard to do with cameras that have a built in flash so close to the lens, but it can be done.

here's my photo, again....not that it's going to win any prizes, but just as an example....

If this comes off as "know it all" or whatever....that's not my intent!!!
