hatching help needed Please

[Sher]

My little chick is doing well! I only got one, but considering I was using a LG, I think I'm lucky. My other incubator with 7 Gold Buffingtons didn't do anything..

But I have one!

Thanks for the encouragement and help. It really made it easier for a new chick mom.

Sher 1 Bearded Collie, 4 calves, 1 old cat and 1 beautiful, noisy, Black Astrolorp baby!!

Just read your thread....Congrats on the hatch!! I am, right now, the nervous Mama that you were! My eggs are pipping and one has hatched.....I love it and am addicted too!!! How cool it is!
Congrats, again! Oh, post a pic, please!!! I just am so obsessed with the whole chicken thing! (My new chick is peeping, gotta go see what's up!)
Later,

Congratulations Sher
I love Australorps....a little bias since my whole flock are BA`s or EE`s (still BAxAmericauna`s). My hubby and I just watched two little BA`s hatch. We are frightenly addicted and wonder what we will do when our coop is about at max. Which will be after this hatch!
Post a photo of your little one for us to see when you can and good luck with the rest of your hatch.

Hi, well, none of the others hatched, but I'll try again. I did order some chicks so she won't be alone. I thought I had put a pic on here, but it didnt' work. I'll try again. Up early, checked on her and our "loaner" from a friend to keep her company. she is getting itty bitty tiny wing feathers and she stretched her wing and hind foot for the first time that I saw. She also stretched her wings and flapped them! Oh, my, I feel sorry for people who can't appreciate something so beautiful and special!

ok, lets see if I did this right. There should be a pic of my little baby and her white leghorn babysitter, who is doing a good job.

Funfeatheredfeet, Good luck! It is an awesome thing! Oh, excuse the upside down thermometer. I had been up most of the night with her the last two nights before....[IMG]https://www.backyardchickens.com/img/smilies/caf.gif

Thank you all for the advice. It made all the difference. I panicked when it pipped. I had no idea what to do next...although I had read all about it..
