Yes. i went with the egg carton method for the first time.


How the chick hatched with it.
once it zipped off the top part i picked it up and moved it cuz i didn't want to break it so soon for the pic. then it sat in the bottom shell for 2 secs and kicking with it's back legs, it exploded out of the shell and carton.

But was that itty bitty egg next to the newly hatched chick another chicken egg or was it maybe a quail egg?

oh sorry, i thought u were asking if i was useing a egg carton.
the itty bitty egg IS itty bitty. it is a bbred egg that's not fertile

Day 22 here and 3 pips and no chicks as of yet. Very Depressing,and stressful. Was hoping I would come home and see a chick this morning, nothing doing. But they said give it 48 hrs before worrying ,So Im keeping a stiff upper lip for now, but congrats on your little chickie. What breed is she ? Mine are Speckled Sussex. Hope you get a little buddy for your baby. Sandy

That is how mine worked outI had eleven Silkies eggs that were developing just fine, but only one hatched. Today is day 22-none are even pipped, how long should I wait? This was my first time hatching. Also, will my chick be okay by itself, until I can get some more? TSC won't have chicks until April.​

well guess what! My chick raising bussines has begun!

i just scooped up 7 chick yesterday! this was my dad face when i told him how many

... make sure they have food, water, clean brooder...

the only chick that hatched is sooo happy now! since it is a little bit
taller then the rest, they all think that chickedee (the 1 that i hatched) is the momma.
and... oh wait, let me get some pics.
