Woo hoo! Good news! Just watch that the other chicks don't start pecking at her toes. If so, find the quietest chick and separate them or you can have a real mess on your hands. Other chicks will peck at the sores on others creating bigger ouchies to deal with. Neosporin was a good choice by the way. Don't be surprised if the chick loses a toenail or two.
blue lotion antiseptic. the color helps prevent picking at the wound

:DDDDDD Question: Is it normal for a chick that just hatched to run to the heat? Because Hope has just smushed her body against the jars protecting her from the heat... When I tried to get her away so she wouldn't burn herself, she just went back. She is still there, and I put a facecloth (blanket) on her, and she is sleeping right in front of the light. I don't want her so be too cold, but where she is is really hot... Will she be okay, or should she be so close to the light? Will she be less cold when she gets her fluff all puffy and warm??? I don't want her to be too cold...
Welcome to the world, little Hope! I'm so glad to see it turned out well for you guys. Can we have some more pics of her dry and fluffed up? She looks like a cutie

Morning! Can't wait to see fluffy photos.

Well we have snow on the ground here. Not much, but just means its on the way. I can't wait for spring already.

I used my hubbys flashlight to candle. I was feeling a little discouraged because I've only been able to see veining up until last night. 6 confirmed wigglers inside. Woo hoo! So, the other eggs are confirmed unfertilized. Is it better for me to leave them in with the fertilized ones a little while longer or should I dispose of them tonight. Today is day 9. I don't want any exploders or rottens. Just thinking about keeping temp balanced. Opinions please....
