Christmas is coming early Hatch-A-Long!

[2ndTink]

Smokejump gave the new additions a thorough inspection and decided they weren't too interesting. I have them in a wire cage so I don't have to worry about him if he ever gets overly curious. And no sooner written than it happened, he's trying to fit his feet through the cage, so he's now outside for the night and I'll find some hardware cloth to add to the cage. Little stinker.



Here they are in a quick group photo by the Christmas tree! No time for posing, I didn't want them to get cold




Here is Star



Let me see if I can get them all straight, Max and Grinch have fuzzy feet, Noel has really long bare legs.

Noel's long legs and the 5th toe sticks straight up her legs




Max has a massive mane thing going on, I haven't captured it well yet.

Adorable!!!

I wrapped window screening around the walls of my brooder (which was 2 large dog kennels cobbled together) to keep nosy cat paws out and little chick heads in. Easier to work with and enough to deter the cats.

Ooh, I think we have some in the shop! Thanks for the idea!

What is the chances of the other 2 hatching still? Today is day 21 and no pips yet.

And one of ours, Stella, just sits on top the brooder and keeps an eye on things.

If no pips in that incubator, then I'd candle them to see if you can see anything moving. I still leave them another day. Once I had one an entire day behind the rest that actually hatched, but otherwise they're all within a 24-hour period.
