smchickfarm- Thanks for the encouragement, I actually thought about going to get some eggs today from a local guy that sells them for eating but I know they are fertile, just mixed of great layers. If I do hatch I will do these that way I won't feel so guilty if none hatch, and only $2 dollars down the drain.
Scubadeaux-Thanks for being sweet but I am pretty sure I am doing something wrong, just need to figure out what. Also I hope your resuced eggs make it, what day are they on? And so sorry about the Oil spill, its just horrible. I live about 60 miles from the gulf coast in texas so I can only imagine if that were happening here so very scary and I hope they get it contained like yesterday!
justtoni44- the reddish looking chick is a partridge rock, she is really beautiful actually. Here's a little better picture
I really love Plymouth Rocks, I have 5 white rocks, and a barred rock and just love the look of the partridge so I ordered one.
Can you move your broody to a private area, where squirrels or other chickens can't get to her? Sorry I am not much help. I know any hatching can be stressful, whether it be with a broody or incubator.
