Instructions take 1 in of wire bend into circle then take 3- 1 in wire sections bend into v's then attach to circle then wrap with ribbon of choice. Place dots of glitter the put on chickens head.
P.S. chicks like shiny things if said tiara falls off a chick will snatc

h it. Then they will fight over it all while you're attempting to catch whichever chick has it.

Still just one chick... No progress on the two that pipped around 4:30 this morning.... Nothing from the others. I pulled one out really quick and candled.... Still lots of veining... Definite movement though.... Didn't want to lose humidity (I ha the hot shower running in the bathroom where the incubator is located) .... Didn't check any others.... Gonna just pray it works out....gotta buy new thermometers.... This was obviously off....

How long do I wait before attempting to assist the pips from 4:30? It's been 10 hrs

Good afternoon everyone. We have snow on the ground with more falling. Looks like the chickens are "cooped" up today lol.

Can't help with assisting or not, but I've got my fingers crossed for you!

So, swallowed my fear of moving developing eggs and took them a dozen at a time in a carton into my windowless bathroom for day 14 candle. I still can't really see veins unless they are biiiiig, but I was able to clearly see folded baby chicks! And lots of twitching babies, so who cares if I see veins! Lol The two questionables from day 10 were pulled - and I rightly called them bloodrings/early quitters when I opened them. Starting to feel a bit chuffed on my keep or toss candling skills. Lol

I think we can quess from the breeds. I would be excited to have those breeds. Are they sending you the right ones now? If you don't want the first set of chicks i will take them LOL

Yes i am sure people can guess lol. they are sending me the right ones this next week. and I will definitely be holding onto the mystery chicks haha, I actually know someone my husband works with who is going to buy any that i wind up not keeping and she is very excited.

Congrats on all the chicks hatching, especially the miracle babies! But so sorry that some have lost beloved pets

I have a couple of pictures of one chick with mama, and then a video of the same thing.







You can hear a LOT of chirping in the video...........guess who it's from? Nope, not the chick eating. It's the newer one under mom!


Thing better work this time *fist shake*
