Fantastic news! I guess all those layers of bubble wrap worked!

Day 21-
Woke up to one more that pipped between 2am and 6:30am. Then another pip at 7:30am. The one that pipped last night has pushed a bit further and there is now a 1.5cm crack below the pip.

I have a temporary brooder set up, but am busy finishing my spiffy sewing modifications to the pop up fabric brooder. Giving the chicks a horizontal view, and the ability for us to reach in from the side, instead of the top.

^^I would love to see your fabric brooder. With the chicks inside, of course!
