ok, so i'm gonna do this again.... I just ordered 12eggs, mostly buff w/ a couple white, hatch a long here I come!

on another horrible note one of my chicks has scissor beak, just literally makes me tear up every time I think about it... just noticed it last night. of all the threads i've read it sounds horrible and is gonna get worse.

of course this chick is the first one hatched from my last batch, and also the one who runs right up when I open the pen. My son's favorite cuz it's the "oldest" (he's 6, my son) chicks turned 1 week old on tuesday. my only partridge too.

I'm so sorry about the chick! I've never heard of such a thing! I looked it up...There is information about treatment... you think you can do something for it?

Waiting any day now !!! Luna in the back has 9 eggs under her. This is my first time I candled 3 a week ago and seen chicks so I figured I would just leave her to it

It's hatch day for me! One egg had a pip when I left for work this morning so now just a few more antsy hours at the office before I get to head home to an incubator full of fluffy little silkies (hopefully)!

Now let's see what I can do to not go crazy with excitement till then lol!
