only two of my chicks have hatched so far (and probably only two will) i had several temp spikes and only two eggs looked viable when i candled but i am leaving the other eggs in for a bit to wait and see, any way one of the two chicks is a terror bulling around the bator climbing on the humidity sourced (wet cloths and bowls of water and paper towels) getting dangerously close to the heating element, finally i found him wedged between the water bowl and the bator wall i cracked open the bator to push the bowl back and what does he do??? JUMPS OUT down about three feet i scoped him up and dropped him back in and he seems fine but goodness did my heart jump
 
Bouncing baby chicks ~ That is a good sign, he is ready to get out there in the world LOL

Maybe hook a bungee cord to him? LOL

Congrats on your hatch!
 
Oh boy, I can just feel the heart failure on that one! Glad everbody's OK!
