Between 4 and 7 this morning - all without incident. I moved them to the brooder after they all dried. They all look like pearls to me. I have pearls, pearl pieds and a French pearl male, who I hope is the daddy!

3 and 4 hatching:
Moving to brooder:
My son built this brooder for me - I used it to brood ten ducklings in May. It's a little big for these few little guys, but it's all I got!
It's got a hardware cloth lid, and is very secure so we can use it outside when the weather is hot (which it is in Florida right now!). The square in the bottom right is a raised wire platform for food and water (worked great for the ducks), which I will use when they get a little bigger, and can hop up there.
