Hi guys

Sad image of an egg-topsie...
The chick looks under developed to me ( see my previous posts) should I leave the other eggs in the incubator or are they all a write off?
 
can u post a pic so we can see it please? and so sorry but hopefully all is well with the lil guy
HI, Just a little update on the one winged chick.

She is doing great, has found her balance.......can right herself now when she falls over.
I am having a horrible time posting pics but will try again.
So frustrating.....have a ton of pic's I would like to share...............
Also, going to the feed store to pick up two banty chicks to put in with her..........
She cries and cries when I am not carrying her.................

Chickydee64 I had 2 chicks born with deformed wings last year, one was a lefty one was a righty, they developed mostly normally except for their one tiny fused chicken winglet.

Hey all FIRST chicks hatched today! Wow I need zanax too (cept I gotta to go to work for 2 days tommorrow night EEEEKKKK)...
One little chick at 10am and we came home later at noon 2nd chick out and #3 on the way (8 eggs total we will see)-- they are under our young (shes not barely a year old ) hen and my ten year old has handled them like 9 times already and picked up the pipped egg...
I know its best not to ... but she is my chicken tender while I am outa town (hubby really is completely non animal oriented and clumsy as heck)-- Hen is in the coop in a nest box about 3 ft off the ground (long story we tried unsuccessfully to move her twice, so now I am leaving her be)--
I just put a feed and waterer on the floor of the coop and an upside down cardboard box filled with straw (entry hole cut into the side) next to it.... and hoping for the best...

This is soooo amazing though.. Broody hens are the best (luckily we still getting 6 eggs a day from the rest)...
