This has been a very unusual incubation. The hatch date was scheduled for June 6. Two chicks hatched one day early on June 5. On June 6 four more chicks hatched. On Monday, June 7 one chick hatched. Tuesday two more chicks hatched. On Wednesday one chick hatched and then on Thursday, June 10 one more hatched. I lost one chick to shrink wrap on Wed/Thurs, and two eggs did not hatch. 11/13 eggs hatched.
3 blues
2 light brown
3 olive
3 Chocolate
As indicated in the previous post we lost two of the chicks when they were placed into a hen box with a broody hen. When we went the next morning to check on them, we could not find the chicks.
