Egg number 54 - Chick number 19

[zazouse]

Looks like the legs and feet are fine, guess it just needed some time. It was supposed to have "friends", but the other 15 eggs were too old and didn't even start to develope. The next set of chicks aren't due until the 16th, so I have no idea what I'm gonna do with this one, lol.

Do you have some older peachicks?
I put mine in a small pen inside the peapen brooder and after 2 days I turn um loose with the older ones, just make sure it is eating good for a couple days and wala it is part of the flock till the next one I just introduced my last baby of the year last week and I still have a couple of my first hatches in there ,I have done every peachick hatched here this way and never had a problem.

The youngest ones are with a their chicken Mama, so I don't think that would work. I have a broody that I might put it under and see if she'll take it.
