MGG's Hatching Thread!

[The chicken Hatcher]

I hatch chickens, hence the username, and they all have big feet once they hatch and until their walking. If his/her feet don't shrink after about 12-24 hours I'd recommend looking farther into it. Happy Hatching!

I might have a picture of a newly hatched chick somewhere.. I'll get back to this with one in a bit.

I sadly don't have a picture, But I've hatched about 5 batches and they've all had the swollen feet.

Thank you so much!

I have 7 definitely developing this morning!!! It's day 4 now. Both Ameraucanas are developing, all four Orpingtons are developing, and it looks like one of the Pene mixes is also developing. I can't see anything but yolk in the Australorp anymore. Weird.

Hi guys sorry I've been incognito I had a rough day yesterday and the night before I'm an expert at assisting at hatching I had to do it for three chick s they just weren't coming out and then I had a problem with my five chicks that I hatched a month ago the two roosters are really beating themselves up and I don't know what to do it's really early for them to be like that but they're ripping each other apart there's any suggestions I am open to anything I will post on my pictures between my new hatch and my month olds I had a terrible night and day so I'll show you a picture of all my babies and the one that kind of looks so funny to me but they all are so beautiful they're all mixed so I don't know they're not pure bread or anything like that. So I don't know what kind of breed they are.

Yes you are right they are different now. It's weird because I hatched five a month ago they didn't have big feet like that so I think I was just startled thank you you are so right.

I meant peeling it off not killing it off
