Want to see a baby chick hatch?

I have video up on my blog (not able to imbed the video here unfortunately) that the Mr. took yesterday while our Silkies hatched. Thought someone might want to see it

VERY cool!!! I loved watching and I got two surprises when I watched. I thought the OTHER egg was the one hatching when, all of a sudden, poof! Here comes a baby literally popping out of the other egg! And then, come to find out, she had a little black friend waiting for her. Soooo sweet. Thanks for sharing. Has the other one made it out yet?

Unfortunately only 3 out of 4 hatched (I haven't uploaded the "birth" video for the other one(s), I'm not sure what kind of footage the Mr. got, I was at yoga while they hatched

). I did end up opening the fourth eggs and got some really great photos- I mean, as great as photos of an unhatched chick can get, you know? I figured it had already died, it might as well not have been in vain....a very good learning experience. I'll be posting those pictures later, if you're interested.
