Mahonri's 2nd Annual BYC EASTER HATCH. Post pics of your chicks!

My hatch is finally over as of 10am this morning. Had to help the last one.. Poor thing was shrink wrapped. So out of 37 set, I locked down 23 and hatched 13. Two have already died. One got stuck between the thermosat and the wall and wore itself out trying to get free. I tried to give it sugar water to get it's energy back, but it died anyway.. And the other had an inside out belly button even though it had absorbed all of it's yolk...

It died within about 12 hours of hatching. So I have 11 left. Sorry the photo is awful. We were in a hurry to get to our Easter festivities and all I had time for was a cell phone pic... But there are 11 of them in this little huddle.

OMG, that may be the world's cutest survivor chick! Poor little fluffy butt. Time to get 'em a friend or twelve!
 
10 out of 20 hatched, one died. 2 were quitters and the rest were shrink wrapped. Clearly my hygrometer went whacky on me because I calibrated it and humidity was 50% during lockdown. Obviously it lied.
