Duchess who is sitting on over 25 eggs has the first hatch this morning, a soft yellowish/white beautiful baby!

That was after I stole some of them! At least two other hens were getting in there and giving her presents. She's an automatic broody machine, the other hens just chill out and let her, Charlotte, and the Sisters do the work.
 
Those are wonderful pictures! Thank you for sharing! (Im glad I had only 3 kids!)

Please post more pics when the other babies hatch out! Still can't get over her sitting all of those eggs.....
 
I don't think even half will hatch since they are so many days apart. I know after she started sitting the other hens had been adding eggs up until about a week ago. I'm happy I only had one!! The best part of this, is a good bunch of those should be Nugget's offspring!!
