Chicks are hatching :)

They're supposed to be RIR, but they're not pure. I'll take some more pics of them later, just waiting for the last 2 to finish hatching... Then there are two more eggs This hatch went WAY better than I expected!

#10 hatched a few minutes ago and #11 is chattering away in the egg

I had to set up a brooder in the bathroom for them. Our flat is so small. It is getting rather hot here now, so I think they'll be outside in a month tops.

Update, she's got 4 chicks and #5 is hatching in the incubator now

Patience, lady! They're still in the eggs! I will definitely post pics when they're ready. I can't wait to go check on them in the morning. I hope they're done hatching by then.

Awesome! I love chicks hatching.

Sometimes they do come early under broodies. Some of those broodies run hot!

I have 2 weeks to go for my last batch. Then I'm done for the year.

Our duck momma still has about 2 weeks to go. I don't know the exact day she started setting them as I was flat on my back with a slipped disc and no one else thought to note when she started... but I have a general idea.
