We put newbies in here until they are stronger.

Then we out them in here. My wife noticed when she took the picture that the water was dry.

Very nice!! I have an incubator full. LOL Took 4 out and placed them in the brooder with the GLW. There not TOO bad with them. The small ones copy everything they do. Don't think the Wyandottes like the chest pump the small ones do. Thats when they get one in the head. CHICKEN TV!!

This little dude was assisted hatch Monday. It had a full yolk sac. The first pic was yesterday evening. The second and third pic is just a few minutes ago. Notice my wife isn't wearing gloves anymore. Lol. She's doing great.

I picked up my eggs this morning from the post office and what a great packing job.
Here are some pics. They're Wheaton Ameraucanas and she packed 6 extra for me.

I think I should make another bator.

I only added 14 more eggs when I took the ones out that had to go into lockdown. But like I said, I have another dozen due today or tomorrow, and another next week from NYwins. So if I can just get through these batches and GET THOSE DUCKS AND TURKEY out I should be ok!

Ducks don't seem to mind the piggy back at all, they are all growing very strong they are on day 16 I think!

Please note: ONLY 14 more eggs...
