INCUBATING w/FRIENDS! w/Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs No problem!

[BantyChooks]

The second egg has pipped! I have videos of the first one, 'Q', hatching. Can I add vids from my phone or only pics? Haven't ever tried to upload vids.

Btw I named it Q because I didn't know the parents, so the egg had a question mark on it since I was originally going to be selling the chicks that hatched, but she didn't want just two, so I'm keeping them.

You have to upload it to youtube and then link it here..... Congrats on the hatchling!

I'm pretty sure I can't add vids that aren't on YouTube, so I just added a few pics of Q hatching. It has a rose comb, so the parents were either a black Wyandotte hen, a black sexlink hen, a black sexlink cross hen, a rir rooster, or a Wyandotte cross rooster. I'm thinking it was the black Wyandotte for mom, and no clue about dad, but I have a feeling it was my Pippin(the Wyandotte cross roo)

The CCL and sapphire are starting to zip, and a CBR has pipped!

Also, when will it start to fluff up? Like, his belly and sides are fluffy, but the top of him looks like it dried kinda crusty....

It's been in the Bator all night. Q hatched at about 9:30-10:30 pm. I'm not taking him out until Aj, the other chick, has hatched and is dried off. Am I doing the right thing?

You're doing just fine

Haha just saw what you said about YouTube. Kinda figured I'd have to do that. I guess I should make a channel one of these days.

I need to run off now...
I do hope you all have a Very Happy Memorial Day!

You too!

Ok Thanks. Sorry you guys have to put up with my worrying. It's just been a stressful 20 days

You are fine..... Ask these guys how I was on my first batch or so! I'm still a horrid worrywart, but manage to tone it down now...... Mostly.

And I'm sure I'm gonna start worrying again soon if the last night pippers (started to zip this morning, but stopped) don't show progress soon.
