Success in the Hot Box
The 26 day old chicks that are now around a week old were a back up to the 20 fertile eggs. Now as you may recall the last batch was a bust, with absolutely no survivors.
This time however some chicks have actually busted out of their shelves and survived.
She doesn't look like much here but she has since stood up, fluffed out and has made the jump into the big chick arena.
Quick side note: I was looking through my poultry identification book, which already is wierd enough, but as I was flipping through I came across this one chicken, the Naked Neck chicken. It was in my humble opinion a very ugly bird. Who would ever want a chicken like that? That said guess who came out next.
A face only a mother could love.
Maybe she's not so bad after all.
This is a one-day old chick. Cute, eh?
This is the last of four successful hatchlings, all have been introduced to the big chick arena.
The girls are doing fine, although much smaller than the rest of them.
It's amazing, they are already getting full of their own personalities.
