Crockpot (slow cooker) incubator - take 2

Put the fam in the run today :)
They were instantly surrounded by curious onlookers
Aww I love all the cuties around her! I remember when we first did a broody hatch, our speckled sussex would come over and watch our hen with her chicks.😁 I especially love that chicken on top of the bale on the cage!šŸ˜‚
 
lt’s a nice warm day and the babies are out and about. One even caught a tiny worm all on its own, I’m so proud 🄰

I haven’t really been home due to work... Today’s my first day off for the week, and actually being able to spend time with the chickens/chicks outside. We got the ā€œremnantsā€ of Ida’s wrath last night with lots of rain... ended up being quite chilly today.

the little ones are growing quick, little wings feathers are showing up!

I messaged the seller about sexing the chicks, and he said that the ones that look male may still be pullets, so I decided to hold on to the potential males for now... we’ll see!

...six days old!

Awww! They're so cute! šŸ˜
 
chickies have entered what I dub the ā€œbutterfly stageā€, the stage where they start fluttering everywhere 🤣

We have some little tails coming in too. There’s no way to even guess the genders on these as they’re all coming in at the same rate!
