Yes, is exciting no matter what, but it definitely made it extra special for me to have my girls there, I told DH that evrybody should add "watch a chick hatch" to their lifelist of things to do, even if not interested in HAVING chickens, I think it's something everyone should witness at least once, was amazing.

Katy Jo... any more out?? How many have pipped? And how old are your girls? Here's pix of my 2 watching a hatch...

Oh are those the sweetest pictures!

 

[Suellyn]

Awwwwwwwwwwwwww.... cute little just-hatched baby

 

[Katie Jo]

LOVE the looks on the little girls faces! That's what my girls looked like too! Okay, one out, 3 pipped....whole lot more to go! I definitely agree...everyone should experience this atleast once, even if they're not going to own chicks.

By the way, did my pics show up to you guys? I can see them, but I don't know if anybody else could.

Here's the update:

Chickie #1 sleeping (for mere seconds in between rounds of frantic peeping)

And Chickie#2 is out! This is a blue/black/barred chick from halo:

Yay! Two chickies!!

Awwww very cute!! My kids do the same.

 

[Katie Jo]

Does anybody know if there is a guard on the fan? My chickies keep standing up really tall....I'm afraid one will get its head lopped off!! Everytime I peek in the bator, they go nuts trying to get out!! It's killing me not to take them out, but I've been a good girl and left them in!!

 

[Katie Jo]

Holy moly, once these suckers get rollin', they start popping out faster than I can keep track! While I was making dinner, 2 more hatched (2 EEs)... then 2 more "showed up" in the bator while I was cleaning up! The last 2 were b/b/barred. So I've got a total of 6 babies now...I don't even know how many more are pipped. I'm so thrilled...I honestly didn't expect even THIS many since this was my very first hatch! I'll post more pics shortly!
