Heres the first 60!

Here are the first 50 at one time in my transfer box first thing in the morning

And after they all made it and started getn their feet under em

This brooder is 4' x 2' and ima have to set up the second one very soon

Were gonna have a nice breeding flock and some good meals out of these things, im totally thrilled. Did run into some problems though. I think id mentioned i let a friend take 50 and one of my bators to her house? She thinks she accidently fried em shes got 21 hatchlings to add to my 68.

Also my incubator is in my bedroom which is off limits to the chiltrens? Theyre still toddlers who dont listen they got in there under dd's watch and tipped the whole thing, cracked and killed 7 eggs at least. They very seldom All hatch to begin with, so idk exactly how many deaths i can attribute to them.

Still though, very pleased and already looking forward to the next ones :

I think any post with the word “hatchling” in it is an unqualified yes!
