Well its the morning of the 24th day and they are just starting to poke there beaks through in one spot. Hopefully they will be out by tonight because i am going to pick up some 2day old americaunas and 1 2day old light brahma that i plan on putting under my hen tonight with them. I just love getting new chicks
