We have our first chick. I checked at noon, didn't see anything started. Came home at 4:30 there was a healthy opening in an egg and an hour later. We have our first chick. Another chick is on the way, a small hole is openingVery exciting

very awesome! I got worried about ya'll back in the beginning, and I even went and hunted you down. When I didn't hear anything further I assumed the worst. So great to hear the process worked! I'm proud for you! I bet that will be yet another very treasured chicken! And hopefully you get some more. That's a perfect 4H event to chronicle, and I wish I'd studied chickens more in my tweens/teens. Very good life lessons to be learned in the development of them.
I'm grinning ear to ear for you two!
