Day 20.

[Rose Quartz]

The 4th egg hatched this morning, but the chick ended up dying this evening. :/
I think there was something already wrong with it, it kept falling backwards when it would stand up. I came home this evening and looked in the incubator and it was on its back but alive and it had dried so i put it in the brooder, went and checked on them a few hours later and found it dead. :/

Sometimes that happens.

They are doing great, eating and drinking and already scratching around! I'm ready to see what they are gonna look like in a few weeks!
