Was amazed when I watched this so I thought I would share. Mostly amazed at how they handle them

and this one too

Thanks for sharing, that was interesting.

They do seem a little more gentle, huh? Lol. Poor little chickies...

Holy chicken poop batman!! I am so gentle when I handle my chicks ... seems to me the hatchery causes a lot of stress to those little chickies

Cackle hatchery has a you tube video as well. I like their's they use new and antique incubators

Well, I was going to post a few more but there are so many! haha. Cackle alone has tons! The owner does mention the new and antique incubators... I think that is cool!

(I was originally looking for videos to see if most of the large hatcheries incubate eggs upright, or laying down. I'm prone to getting sidetracked!)
