Except 23 and 24. Not even a pip yet. Maybe 2 more eggs didn't make it? I did candle them quickly while getting the floofy babies (it was super super crowded) and they had no internal pips. No movement and they had blood spots. I will give them til tomorrow morning but I highly doubt it.Has everyone hatched it the second batch?
I love this idea!!Here are a few photos I was able to dig up, each time I have chicks it turns out different depending on what boxes I have available. And when they are ready to go from the house to the porch, I just disassemble to get them through the doors, and reassemble on the porch. Not fancy, but it has been working.

18 babies from 24 eggs is pretty great though!Except 23 and 24. Not even a pip yet. Maybe 2 more eggs didn't make it?

I doubt the last 2 will hatch. Apparently 2 is my number to lose. I am very shocked at having 16 babies. I read shipped hatch rate was 40% or so lol. I did NOT expect 16 floofs. Might have to sell some before they feather if I can't make more room. Anyone live near South Carolina can come get a few18 babies from 24 eggs is pretty great though!
It has been "wasted space" for us, we had never used the porch for anything other than storing tomato cages, spare hoses, and the charcoal BBQs. Perfect solution!I need a covered porch now just because I want porch chicken condos. Lol.
