I did. I added the pic in to my last post.

I think I need to change out my plexi glass, it seems frosted.

The crest comes from a vaulted skull. You can tell if you see a skull like that. You might see some of the crest when the chick fluffs up, but sometimes you do not see it right away.

They will be very cute!

Well the one that's out sends to have a normal skull. The one that died had a vaulted skull. So will this one have a crest or?

It may have a small crest.

Wait until if fluffs up and you will have a better idea!

Waiting is the hard part.

Here is the first pic. Not very clear since the incubator is a little foggy. Will post one after he/she dries out.

2 more CCLs have pipped in the last hour. Seems like finally the wait is over! No pipping on the Bantam Wyandottes yet
