Chicks Hatched Early

[LoveOfFeathers]

I found a wonderful surprise today, I had a hen start hatching a day early. They are cochin bantams. So far I have one black, two blue chicks and two eggs pipped. I also have more chicks hatching by this weekend. They will be barnyard mutts, I’m hoping for a short legged one. Also have another hen that I want to set eggs under. Broodiness is like a plague right now, everyone has baby fever and I’m the idiot that loves chicken math.

Awesome! We'd like pictures when you can.

P.S. The only cure I know for chicken math is, to get more chickens.

Three dark blue and two black cochin bantam chicks.

Let’s just say that Mommy wasn’t thrilled about my phone, she pecked it then turned her butt fluff to the camera.

That is a great surprise!

You should start a hatch-a-long thread. They're quite popular around these parts. Haha.
