Chick it out!

Or, just chicking in...
(sorry)
Can I get a Woohoo?!?
Peep!
Go Number One!!!


She's less than 30 seconds old in those pictures. ('She' because we're thinking positive. We want hens to add to our laying flock. So she's a she, at least until proven otherwise.)

She's been flailing around the incubator, trying to figure out WTF is up with this gravity thing...

Hatching is hard work. Poor little thing is exhausted, what with all the flipping and flopping and rolling around the other eggs...
And look what we saw when she flipped a couple of eggs over:

More pips!!!

(That photo was titled Number One and the Pips. I told Madman we'll have to name her Gladys...)
