Hatch-Along January 19th!!

[buckock]

1000AM. 504 hours and 21 days since setting. 9/14 pipped, 8/13 hatched. One did not absorb all its guts before hatching and may not make it. Life’s hard- poor little thing. I’m leaving it alone and hoping for the best. Two eggs were set 24-48 hours after the others so are not due yet. The others are doing great considering they were incubated over a snow storm and three power outages.

They are Silver Laced Wyandottes. I'd love to have some Gold ladies but right now we have a Silver Rooster so all his chicks are like him, lol.

The night brought 7 little chicks and two more pips! The little pipsqueaks are a blur of movement and full of little tweety cheeps.View attachment 2966494View attachment 2966495

Day 23. 550 hours since setting. We have 9 really strong chicks, one that didn’t make it, and 3 eggs. It's not a perfect hatch but considering it's my second set of chicks, and we had two snowstorms during the incubation, I'm pretty satisfied. I’m considering tossing the last theee eggs as the incubator is smelling pretty awful. I moved the babies to a hall closet brooder and they are all drinking and eating.

Wyandottes are so adorable! Love their back stripes and speckled faces!
