Nice@Sally Sunshine 4 Dom chicks. If head spots are right I think I've got 3 girls and 1 boy. Although looking at leg color it looks like 4 girls. I had 10 eggs in lockdown, 5 hatched and I culled one because it had problems. Dom eggs seem to be effected more by humidity swings then other eggs I've incubated.
check the one that has no spots legs compared to the females, are they larger thicker? So cool to see you hatching your own now!!@Sally Sunshine 4 Dom chicks.

Will have to check legs when I get home. I've got three with small head spots and one with a big spot. Leg color can be seen good between a small spot and big spot in pic 6.

you try to lock up before they are in the coops? I always wait for them to find their homes. Ive never had issues lettting them free range, they know their homes, unless they havent been in them long enough.
I don't think I have any probiotics but I could put ACV in their water if that is okay? Or only if they have a hen?
