Could I be anymore in love! Doubt it.

I would like to introduce you to Chick1 & Chick2 of my 2nd ever hatch (4 weeks apart). These two are about 20 hours early. I am so in love.

Grr. Chicks 3 & 4 hatched this morning. Not 2 & 3. Evidently the hour and a half of sleep I got wasn't quite enough.

Ahhh chicken love. I know it well. I'm in love myself with the 3 I hatched last week, have 2 more in the lockdown bator due any time now and a whole bator full off eggs still turning. And I dunno what I was thinking when I went to Rural King yesterday and came home with 8 new chicks to add in with my 3 already hatched. Those 8 feel like step-chickens to me lol. Definitely different love when you hatch them yourself!

VERY different type of love! You don't know how glad I was when I read what you posted. I felt like a horse's rear for not loving my TSC chicks like I do the ones that I incubated and hatched myself!!! They're 4 weeks old today and tomorrow, and I get that tight "love" knot in my chest whenever I think about them.

I haven't hatched any myself, but really want to. I have been checking out incubators and reading all the threads about hatching. I can't wait to try it.

Nova, be careful. Once you start, it's SO HARD to stop!!! I've only had chickens since January & this is my 2nd hatch exactly 4 weeks after the first. Not knowing anything at all, I just have the LG9200. No fan. No turner. A royal PAIN to keep temps regulated and controlling humidity is a joke. Yet I had an 82% success rate for hatch 1, and am doing pretty well with hatch 2 so far. For some reason, with both hatches, I have had 4 (at least) hatch a day early. Healthy little things, though.
