Ok, I had to help one. . .

haha, he's a cute little guy!

He looks like a perfect white crested polish now. He is now 5 weeks old and that poof is standing up straight and tall. I have to get new pics

His (it's) name is Elmer, because he was glued in.

Very Clever!

I have to say I am very proud of myself for helping that little thing to live. It was my first one. I have helped two others since. One died, one other is the cochin in front of Elmer that is pooping.

I have one other that I will help in the morning if I have to. It will be over 24 hours by then. It has a small hole but hasn't worked at it since this morning.

This hatch is taking its time. Making me nervous!!! I have three out, one 3/4ths zipped. I want that one out so I can remove them and wait for the rest!

 

[BLaBauve]

Hatching takes a lot of patience I've learned! The one that I helped still can't stand at all and gets stuck on it's back. So pitiful.

It's only been an hour, you don't think it will get better on it's own with time? I'd hate to open the incubator again with others still hatching.
