So, one chick hatched last night, of course while were gone! Its doing fine. Now we're waiting on the rest. But now my worry is, my son opened the lid this morning,unbeknownst to me, and didnt put the lid back on properly so the humidity dropped to 48%.i put a warm wet paper towel in there to bring it up, which it did in about a minute. Ugh, the stress!!

We're up to three now, with a fourth one with a hole in it. Hopefully in the morning itll be free! This thrid one, though, has much larger wings than the first two. My daughter is sure its a roo.
