Jadee is the one closest to the door,she is a partridge silkie,and she loves her food,she will come off her nest if there is corn thrown on the floor,the other silkie will not leave her nest for anything.Jadee is kinda like me, I love to eat to!LOL

Thanks for sharing the pictures.
I am pretty sure that the remaining egg is not going to hatch. So I need to start over again. I have learned a lot in the last few weeks. Mostly in the last week. So maybe my percentages will be better next time.

Sadly, due to neighborhood pressure, I had to get rid of Ronnie, Shilo's father, last night. It was the first time I had processed a chicken in more than twenty five years. I think I did alright, but it was definately not fun. I kept flashing back to him when he was a few days old following me around like a puppy and climbing up to sleep on my lap. I feel so bad for the hen too. I know that she's going to be lonely.
Shilo is doing great on this her seventh day. I am hoping that now that the hen is alone that there will be a chance that she will accept the company of the chick when it's time to remove her from the brooder. Otherwise I guess I'll have to just keep them separate until it's grown.

I Just learned this morning from reading other threads that it's possible to incubate an egg even if it has cooled down. I was under the impression that I had to start with warm eggs. Go figure.
