New to hatching

[babycatlori]

We've had chickens for years but this is the first time I've ever incubated eggs. I've got 9 chickens and 1 rooster, I don't know their breeds. The rooster is really cute, he has feather on his feet. Anyway, I Started my first batch of 7 eggs about 3 weeks ago and now have my first cheep. Waiting patiently for the other 6 to peep and put 7 Guinea eggs to start incubating.

Welcome to BYC

We're in the same boat today lol I have a pip and some peeps going on in the incubator myself today. Here's hoping we both have a good hatch!

Hi

Glad you could join the flock! Good luck with your hatch and congrats on the Cheeping It's always so exciting when you actually hear sounds of life in there! I'm only on day 11 with my current batch so I have a little longer to wait yet

Hope you have a fantastic hatch and enjoy your time here on BYC

You can post pics of your birds in What Breed or Gender is this? section if you wish to find out their breeds:
