First hatch was a success

[stephmarie333]

I just hatched my first ever eggs in the incubator! I started with 12 eggs and lost 2 during early candling due to them not progressing- All 10 of the eggs left hatched! Not bad for my first time! I have no idea the breed of these chicks so I'm excited to see what they grow into. (neighbor gave them too me they all hatched from light brown eggs)

How eggciting! Congratulations! They're soo cute!

#3 looks to be an Easter egger, but since the egg was brown, it's likely a mix. #2 *might* be a maran? I'm not sure, but that's a lovely chocolatey on the chick!

Thank you so much! I think you might be right about the easter egger- I know my starlight green eggers looked very similar as chicks but I just have no clue. I am now crossing my fingers for Marans because I have always wanted some - there are two of those little brown cuties they hatched after all the yellow ones and surprised me being so different!
