The chicks out completely! The knock must have frightened it into hatching quickly, it's brothers and sisters are still sitting in their eggs lazy as can be xD

I actually saw about the nail polish method but I was worried about the chemicals too, and I was really worried it might make hatching even harder for the baby!
Hopefully the rest of our eggs hatch. I know there are two dead ones in there; one never developed and the other died around day 12, I think. Just slush and a split air bubble in there. The others are heavy as anything though!

What a beautiful Hen. Pictures of her too please. The baby is a sweety.

I'll take a big family photo in the morning of her then! Two more have hatched, and there might be another hatching tonight so it'll be full of chicken-y goodness

I've hassled her so much tonight though, I think she'll flip out if I try and look at the eggs again!
And I think she's a silver laced wyandotte crossed with a silkie! We got her and her sister at an auction a few years back so we can never be certain, but they seem about the right size for it.
They've been amazing mothers ever since though. They've practically raised our entire flock!

Hens like that are invaluable.

She is beautiful. Does her sister look just like her?
