My chicks hatched today- pics.

[klutzyruth]

I had 8 speckled sussex eggs in the incubator and 6 have hatched.
The first piped.

Freshly hatched.

Tired baby.

Hanging out.

I've moved them all to the brooder for recovery time.
More pictures to come, I'm sure.

Wow, I hadn't noticed. All excited about just having babies!
Do you think that it's a rooster?

I didn't notice that either but who ever said that must be on to something, maybe he is a roo!

I am extremely jealous and you can send any leftover straight to me! Where do you live, I am quite close to the airport myself!

I really hadn't thought about what to do with the extras.

I have a rooster & 2 hens. These are their eggs.
The roo is my avatar. He's a bit older now. A whole year old.
