Valentine's Day Hatch

[kellyn]

Thanks Featherz, but what would I do with one chick? My other eggs(buton quail) aren't due for another 10 days and everyone else is too big. Poor fellah, I hate that I'm too emotionally weak to put down a malfunctioning bird.

Aww poor birdie.. well, if he does well, bed him down with a feather duster or stuffed animal.

Here's my horrible pic (so hard to get a good brinsea pic) of my second one out.. love those blue eggs!!

Here's my little guy from the NYD hatch with his deformed head and one eye.. He's still doing very well in his new home!

How did the tape egg do?

I've got I think 21 chicks hatched from this. Most are black with yellow wing tips but I have two that are ancona that are the awesomest yellow and black polka dotted.

I have 2 eggs left unpipped and 1 dead in the shell that was incredibly tiny and liquidy but alive when I cracked the shell. Almost like it was behind a few days.

Tape egg has shown no signs of pipping yet, but there are other eggs that are unpipped as well. It still has a small bit of tape on it, so IF the chickie pips, s/he better not pick that spot. I put it 'no tape' side up so it will get the hint.

Ooo! A brown egg of mine just hatched.. and guess what? It's a NN!!

hehehe.. No idea.. I know the lady that has them, but I don't know if she names her chickens. Too bad he was a boy or I would have kept him for sure.
