Good Luck!!

2 little red sizzle chicks so far. Both seem to have black skin one has a yellow beak and 5 toes and the other has a black beak and 4 toes but they are so adorable. Still waiting on the other two. Chirping from one egg, its only day 21 though so I have hope.

Well only those two hatched. Not sure what happened with the other 2 they both pipped internally but never pipped the shell, I opened them up and they weren't shrinkwrapped. They are so cute. I decided to try and put them in with the older chicks which has never worked for me before. I always try and always have to take them back out but for some reason it worked this time. They hide under the bigger chicks(week old lf cornish and mutts).

Glad you got 2 reds!! My reds disappeared last week!!!! Came home and the cage door was opened and no sign of the birds!! Strange!!
I hate the other two didn't hatch!

They are Easter Egger/ Black Copper Marans Rooster. I can't remember if I sent you any F2's but if I did they are Olive Egger (EE/BCM) crossed with BCM rooster.
