My first hatch

[Mrs J]

Yeah, luckily she was fine (There was only one baby at the time, the sheep that ate it is the one on my PFP, and the chick that was in there is the one in my PFP too.)

That is good news! I have a friend who has a small-hold, (mainly sheep) she has told me, the slightest shock can kill them.

Oh wow... I didn't know that... I think when she (the sheep) ate the cord it was turned off.

Hatch is finished! Of the 18 that made it to lockdown, 16 hatched. The two that didn’t make it: 1 was in position but died before pipping and the other one was malpositioned.

here are some more fluffy pics

Yes! We found someone local who was selling fresh hatching eggs. She takes really good care of her flock. The quality of the eggs really make a big difference with hatch rates I think.

If the eggs were not shipped, they do tend to have a higher hatch rate. Cute babies!!!
