new batch..join me!

I would have taken him out too, especially if there were no other pips or zips
That makes me feel better. He was more than 24 hours early, so I didn't want him disturbing the others and/or harming them! We do have one other one that has now pipped. Depending on how they are, I'll try to leave them in. Although, a part of me wants to take them out so the other one has some company. Obviously I'd leave them in until s/he is dry.
 
OMG I have a baby! Not even the one who was piping first!

And its all yellow....first one out of all the the babies I have that is solid yellow! He mom was a buff Cochin so I would say she will look like her mom! Her mom was one that the coyotes got 2 weeks ago! So much fun and now there are about 6 piping! This is only day 20!
 
Mine ended up being about 18-hr early, not sure why, guess they were in a rush lol I got my first solid yellow chick too! S/he is a frizzle :) I have 4 frizzles and 3 silkies.

My hatch is over for this set, I have another set due tmrw so we start all over. I got 90% hatch rate with 100% fertility on SHIPPED EGGS

. I lost one baby to drowning, he pipped mid-egg, turned and suffocated he was a silkie.
 
I have four pipped and one zipping! Hoping s/he is out before we go to bed. If not, we'll have a really sweet surprise in the morning like this morning. :)
 
Ok. Here is Boomer! This was not long after he came out of the 'bator. He's now "happy" in his brooder awaiting his peeping, pipping, and zipping brothers and sisters!
