Hey guys! After sleepless nights and gaining a few grey hairs i finally have chicks! I sat 42 eggs in the incubator for my first hatch (18 chicken and 22 quail). Well after a 3 day hatch period its over! I have 28 beautiful babies! 16/ 18 chickens and 12/22 quail. Not to bad for a first hatch a feel! I was hoping for a higher hatch but cant complain! I do have one with splayed leg and one with curled feet and splayed leg but i have them doctored up for recovery. Heres a few pics of the two special needs babies and a few pics from hatching to the brooder, and of course my pup waiting for her babies to finish joining the world!
I want to thank all of the wonderful people from this site who helped me through the hatch with tons of advise and tips. You guys are awesome and i am so glad to be a part of such a wonderfull community!
