I'm glad you have been getting a hatch, Maya. I was so hoping for you and the babies are adorable. Make sure you dwell on the ones you have and not the ones you don't. It can happen in any hatch, even if nothing goes wrong.

We have a hen sitting on 3 eggs and found the first hole today.

Pip ... that's a pip. YAY! Next it will "zip," like a zipper and go all the way around.
Hooray, another new chickee!

Early is good

YAY!

I finally got a peek at my 2nd baby---she looks just like her big sibling---I'm pretty sure this one was a RIR/BO mix my first was a BO...I hear a lot of chirping and I don't think it's coming from the babies...

Hows the carton hatching going?

I have done that and liked it better than hand turning. My HovaBator turner is so rough it makes the eggs look like they all have quitter rings around them. Bruises the fire outa my eggs. So this time I just laid them flat on the wire. Turned them when I thought about it. Maybe once a day...some days I forgot and just poked my hand in for a sec and rolled over the top of them all at once and THIS is the best hatch I have had this year! I even let it run dry twice!

I am uploading pics to Photobucket! So Pics coming next!

OH I have 13 Black, 6 yellow counting the 1 Turken, 2 yellow striped, 3 brown/silver striped, and 4 WHITE that look like Silkies, but I dont have Silkies in that pen and my White Silkie ROO is in lock up with my White Silkie hens. SOOOO we'll see what happens with those! So thats 29 Hatched and 6 more pipping.
