Chooky update!!
We had a total of 7 little chicks hatch yesterday from sometime early morning (around 5am, until late last night/this morning at 1am!) And a late comer at lunch time today!
So we got a total of 8 little chicks! 5 eggs haven't done anything and 1 died on hatching ;_;
The first 4 chicks are in the brooder box and the newest 4 are still in the incubator drying out XD
The first chick to hatch I've called Arnie, cause it was the first to bust out hours and hours before any others! And trompled all over the eggs and chickens through the day :p and its the biggest!
When the 4 newer chicks are in the brooder I will take some photos and post them up! ^___^

My family used to have chickens, but we didn't have anything fancy like an incubator. We just let them do their own thing.
We started with a couple of chooks and a young rooster. Fairly soon we had some baby chooks too.
The rooster was funny because he hadn't fully worked out how to crow properly so he could only get about halfway through before coming to a choking and spluttering stop. Sort of like "Cock-a-doodluurgh".
