The Marans made it out and the BLRW is finally starting to zip, I can see 2 orps that are pipped and one other BLRW. I've lost track of how many trips I've made to the basement.

On a sadder note tho I'm thinking I'm going to have to cull one of the BOs that hatched yesterday. Can't get one of her legs under her and keeps flipping over.

Another Orp has hatched! This one is darker than the first and lighter than the other.

I hope I get at least one pullet. I'm just tickled tho to get some hatched. There is still one orp with a pip and a BLRW pipped.

I just realized I never said that the one BLRW hatched too.

This one is dark too. I still only see one pip on the BLRW eggs. I'm surprised because I thought they all looked pretty good when I moved them to the hatcher...I had more hope for those than the orps honestly! The one BLRW that has hatched looks to be a dark one which is good because I mostly have light and splashes from other hatches.
 
Did you try taping its legs so it can get the feet under it to stand? One of mine has curly toes so I taped them flat and it is walking perfectly fine now.
