Oh yeah girl... I just hatched my first chicks last night. So excited with all the peeping going on. And my black silkie is raising them for me, so they are out in the coop and no inside chicky clean up! hahaha

Oh yea, I have peeps due each of the next three weekends in the incubator and two broodies due this weekend. Work, work, work, but what fun it is. What will I do if most of them hatch!! That would be over 100 babies!!!

This hen I'm using is a Bow Lake hen, and is the broodiest thing I can think of. She actually set on an egg last november less than 15 minutes after finding it. I had to break it up because she wasn't on account of she was determined to hatch that month old infertile egg. I estimate she can cook about 10 of her own eggs at a time.
