Eggs getting wet and cold in a rain flooded nest must temporarily suspend the hatch process because yesterday I had two very late arrivals (the brown and the black)
All of these are silkies, the three are crossed colors with the brown being a pure partridge color (that there being its actual mom) Up until this little brown chick I have never had show quality stock with their extra poof heads and when this baby first hatched and was all still wet and sticky I learned something about the extra poofy head knob of a show silkie... THEIR SKULL HAS A LUMP. This guy's head looked like Gumby before he flooded up 8I
...I did not know silkies were bred into a deformed skull to get that extra huge head puff o.O
The rest are crossed colors with pet-quality moms. The dark ones both have a black mum and I am guessing they have different dads since the one is a blue indicating a splash father as supposedly a splashXblack always equals a blue, and the other is black so I am guessing a partridge father. The pale one, OMG LOVE IT, appears to be a "champagne" and I am assuming it is a splash partridge cross (will never know which parent was which as I have both hens and a roo of both colors) I hope it turns out a hen ;A;
ANYWAY here is the happy little family, they are living in a cage in my work room for now, so much happy peeping <3

It's called a vaulted skull, should you ever want to read up about it
Glad to see you have a few more fuzzballs.
I read this very interesting article by Metzer farms, on a hatch of duck eggs. Mid hatch the order was cancelled, we're talking hundreds of eggs, so they stopped the incubator.. I don't recall the exact details, but they started the incubator back up several days later and they still hatched, just at a later time. Heat during incubation is a real killer, cold just slows them down.
