Great job! Congrats!!

I am on my first incubation and am very nervous. It is day 3 and they are alive and growing! I am so excited. Please post more pics of them if you can I would love to see them

here they are in the brooder box

this little striped guy is my favorite

I have some that are gold, and 2 or 3 that are have a more reddish look

They have spent most of the time sleeping, not interested in the food or water, but as of about an hour ago they are running around, eating and drinking.

Hi there- you should get the babies off the news paper and on to paper towels- they can get spradle leg if they walk on something slippery. Congrats on the new fuzzybutt additions!

They were on paper towels in the smaller box, yesterday. There are shavings under the newsprint. These guys are in with two royal palm turkey poults, who like to eat shavings. I'm gonna try pulling out the newspaper again in a bit. Then I have to babysit the turkeys and see what happens.

My boys have decided that they are all picking one of their own. No sharing. My oldest has tried to claim Lil Stripey. We'll see what happens. I do plan on keeping some of em.
