Double Yolker Day 17 And Alive!

[ChickNanny13]

2x That group pix is adorable. How'd you get them to sit still? Are they all EEs? Same parents?

First thing I did this morning was run to the bottom of the garden to let the feathery ones out then straight on here - before I even started the coffee - 20 pages overnight

I’m sad cause I’m never gonna get any rest because I have twins!!!! We have them! I took pics! Ones smaller bet they are all good! Healthy and loud! Omg I’m in awe. It happened so fast I just have pictures!

Congratulations - they are adorable

so no Facebook,

This is a good thing!

I'm not a FB fan, but for twin updates...

Please update here as well as facebook. I don't do facebook or twitter or anything. Joining this website is actually a big deal for me (I'm a pretty private person)

Glad I'm not the only one! I no longer use FB either and considering all the privacy abuses they have been doing to us all for years that has come out recently I'm surprised there are still so many that do! Unfortunately they have destroyed most forum communities online (hundreds of thousands of them) so there is actually less choice than there was 10 years ago!

I recommend
Keeping it here...in this thread.

Absolutely! And I'm guessing that the mods can edit the title if @Scott214 wants?
Look forward to seeing the updates!

Btw started 7 Japanese quail eggs yesterday

Welcome to BYC - that is so exciting you are trying again. We have a UK thread as well, I'll try to find a link for you!

Here is the final outcome. I got 5 chicks from 4 eggs. I thought I had another egg but I miscounted because it’s from a different batch but has started pipping on day 18! which means I got a 125% hatch rate!

Those little chickies are just adorable!! All of them!! Happy everyone hatched so well!!

I've been following since thurs. Every time I've seen a twins hatching thread, I've followed it with fingers crossed. But most have not turned out well, ---so you've beaten the odds!!!!! Congrats! You could keep this thread going for months, years, even. ➔There's a way to update the title, adding words such as 'successful hatch', or '2 healthy chicks hatched'....those who've done it can advise.
Again, congrats and good luck with the babies!
Sue

You should post this question in the predator forum. Someone there can help you

I haven't commented on this thread yet but I sure have been checking it regularly and am so tickled that the twins made it out and they are both healthy little fluffy butts.

After reading so many failed twin hatch threads this sure has been an uplifting experience. Congratulations!

I think somebody needs to start a 'Twins Club' thread for people who are dealing with double yolk hatchings can post pictures of their 'twin' successes and yes, failures also. It would be such a help to folks who are dealing with this challenge with both chicken and duck eggs.

Love, love the picture of your new chicks all lined up on the couch.

It really is wonderful to have a happy ending to challenging hatch.
