Welcome to Backyard chickens. Sounds like you are doing everything just right with your hatch. I know the waiting is the worst part - they generally say "sit on your hands," to keep them off the incubator. Sending good hatching vibes your way

and hope you will later update with photos, so we can see the happy group.

Hello again here's an update. They are brilliant I love them all! The only problem I have is I got 4 roosters n one hen. Thay all get on fine for now. I'm not sure what to do. Should I get more hens? Or get a new home for female? N keep roosters. I want to keep them all but I don't want 10 hens per male

Some of th pics are terrible stand by for some freshies. Henry the goose doesn't have any time for chickens he like to hang w our dogs. Follows them everywhere. I think he/she thinks it's adog. Barks at strangers. Chases the stick Flys behind my golf cart pretty funny. He still sleeps in his dog crate no fuss
