First hatch under a Mama Hen!

I just got my first peachicks yesterday, and today my mamas decided to start hatching. You could knock me over with a feather! All the hard work is soooo worth it for weeks like this

How many days did it take for them to hatch? I have a hen sitting on 14 eggs for approx 25 days but nothing has happened. Candled at 18 days and I’m sure they looked how they where meant to!

Excellent question. Guineas are supposed to take 28 days and I believe I had one at 27 and yesterday’s was 28. They are all different stages of development so hard to tell went on vacation and my husband let half my girls go broody
