How are your chicks doing?

How many eggs do you have what breed?
16 eggs. 4 Cornish NN x NN or buff polish possible stripper, 4 polish cross possible frizzle, NN, pure buff polish, stripper, 2 goose eggs possible white, and 6 bantam cross eggs. My plan was to hatch my Silkie eggs but when I paired my Silkies the hen quit laying so I’m gonna have to wait.
 
Have some incubating and have some on order for late April delivery. A few days ago, In the course of wife's ..."just need to pick up a few things" we ended up with 10 babies. Five Buff Orps and five Silver laced Wyandottes. They're sweet and getting friendly but still a bit cautious.

I'm 6'4", 250lbs, retired military and think I'm a tough guy to some degree. But these lil buggers. . . Get your heart.

New babies arrived last week. 5 Easter Eggers. The cuteness, it burns!
This is my first time raising chicks. They're doing fantastic, and growing like little weeds. The grandkids have already named a couple. They plan on naming the rest this weekend.
So far I've had not a single problem. No sickness, no leg issues, nothing. (knocks on wood) hope it stays that way.
