cute birds! I looked quickly at the last bird and thought his tail feathers were growing from behind his neck LOL! I guess I'd better wear my glasses!

Congrats Gen! That hen is a great little layer.
If you let her go broody, you are going to get less eggs. If you have another broody bantam sized bird I would use that, and then I would use the incubator. I always try to use broodies when I can, I think they do a better job than I do, lol. Just quit collecting eggs from your smaller bantams and hopefully they will decide to sit, and you can switch them out later.
Pictures of chicks will be required on here though!
Hey Jessi! guess what!!!
We just hatched 6 tiny chicks from Typhon and Icca (named after you of course)!
I only got a chance to take a picture of 1st baby chick right after it hatched yesterday.
I'll post pictures later when i get home
Some of these have very different wing position than others and some tails are high and some are low. Is this just a confirmation difference or is there something else to it?
I know that with the other chicks I hatched, the girls had tails that came in sooner and longer wings than the boy chicks. Do seramas have anything like that?

I personally have never noticed anything like that. Mine all seem to be uniform with the same hatch date. Not sure if you can tell in the photos I have above yours but 2 of the black ones hatched 2 days before the rest and it is very noticeable in their wings, tails, and size so if you have different hatch days you might see a difference.
