#3 chick had difficulty unfolding her head to hatch after zipping the egg. I reached into the incubator and quickly popped her top. This chick has a huge vaulted skull. It is taking a long time to recover from hatching. Besides the remarkable vault, she is bigger than the first two chicks. More down too. The markings are unmistakable chipmunk/partridge colored. Striking.

A noticeably remarkable chick even if it isn't a paint.
I've decided to toe punch these chicks from the F1 Pen 2 to keep records of their journey.
