Diary & Notes ~ Air Cell Detatched SHIPPED Chicken Eggs for incubation and hatching

[Sally Sunshine]

Quote: I LOVE IT! Sparky sent me drawings when Silver and I sent her all the incubator/goodies I was so thrilled to get them, she made me all teary eyed, you know when your a mom you do for everyone else and sorta don't get a lot in return except pretty smiles and funny laughs, but they good too!! I am thrilled you spent the time for me girl, seriously THRILLED!

Yey we just hatched a baby last night! We have it in a small box under a heat lamp going to get chick starter in a little bit as it arrived earlier than I calculated!! Chick has fluffed up over night and is very loved already. Only thing is its getting noisier but has just fallen asleep. Do I keep it in here for a while or take it out to mama hen out in the coop. Its still very cold here in Alberta so not sure what is best. I do know if we keep chick in here I will need a bigger box.

I didn't think that you would like it that much. Now I wish that I would have put more time into it, haha.

I figured it was the least I could do after all of the advice you have given me.

Was she hatched by a broody hen? or an incubator?

Do internal pips sometimes look like this, or is something wrong? I know I shouldn't have messed with the eggs....

Wow! That's incredible! I'm going to go order me some vetericyn.

Sorry about you button quail, I hope she makes a fast recovery.
