Just got home, and two pips! Really tiny, but they are peeping like crazy to each other. Our red border collie freaked out when I put the egg next to her while it was peeping. She searched everywhere for a chick! She is laying on the ground staring at the incubator still. She loves chickens and chicks, but loves herding them around the years more.

Love that. Oly does the same.

Found it! Man, Sally, your coops are awesome. Everyone has such cool looking coops and runs and I just have a kinda ugly, but functional, giant run. :/  It's easy to expand onto though! Since the very first section and 12 RIR's, We've expanded it three times. With a fourth in progress, although that section won't be intergrated with the others. It's for ducks only.

My coop is not so cute lol

Chick with pip has a small hole in membrane, but he can't find the hole to put his beak back through

Hey, y'all,
Before we all run off in different directions to celebrate the arrival of New Years with family & friends, I propose we all raise a virtual glass in toasting our hostess & creator of this thread dedicated to incubation & fun. In addition to maintaining a household, raising young children, and taking care of God knows how many chickens, she's somehow found time to research and reprint, for our education, many studies, articles, tips, etc., from others and herself, and given freely of her own experiences.

I wish I knew how to throw a parade, for she certainly is deserving of one. Since I don't, this will have to suffice.

THANK YOU, Sally. You'll probably never fully realize how much you and your efforts to help are truly appreciated. It an honor to call you FRIEND.

     

Awwwww and my heart grew two sizes tonight. To you miss Sally, whom I love and helped me tonight and to you whites, opened armed and accepting.

I hope each and every one of you have a happy & healthy new year, and many more just like it.
Reading this thread has become the highlight of my day (now THAT'S SAD)! I gotta figure out where my real life went!

I'm about to pack it in; gotta get up & head to the deer woods bright & early tomorrow.

HAPPY NEW YEAR

Pushed his beak over through hole with finger, he's taking deep breaths. He couldn't breath very well before

He looks silvery feathered where I saw his head earlier
