Hatching update: second hatch under way

[CallMeMealworm]

Hey everyone!

Today is day 21 and out of 21 eggs, I have two hatched and healthy chicks and two that needed help.

This little blue guy is a Cochin.

I hope my ICU chicks make it.

She's still in the egg. I'm hoping she can make it the rest of the way on her own. One chick is very small but vigorous.

I have the tiny chick and the half hatched chick separated but in the incubator.

I might possibly give them some vitamins later on tonight
