Well almost done hatchin.
Half the eggs hatched, rest died right before hatchin. Have 3 to go then done for a few days.
I have a outside baby brooder and last night after work. I found a chick almost dead and cold motionless bleeding from his head. Looks like it fell victim to other chicks peckin his lil head bald. I grabbed it up and placed it in the bator just to see. This mornin it up and peepin and runnin around! Im so happy as its a calico cochin and was so sad to see it dead. So give a few days to recoup and blue kote his bald spot and reintroduce him back with the rest of the peeps.
