chicks hatched in my homemade incubator **with pics**

That is too funy because I thought about letting my eggs listen to music as well during lock down. I mean science has proven plants do better when music is played or if they are talked too.

i have learned that the chicks like a little inspiration to get out, i usually whistle to them especially if i have only one hatching, it seems that they hatch quicker when they are getting cheered on

i just think that

I still say Tom Waits is a fantastic musician and probably the best presentation to imprint rooster crowing on impressionable chicks.


Congrats on a perfect hatch!
