Yes these are the eggs i have been incubating for 3 weeks. I have 16 but as yet this is the only one to hatch, i really hope i get at least 1 more as it would be sad to get just 1 tiny lonely chick
this is egg 11 (i numbered them) he/she (i hope she ) is a warren x rhode island red. |

No they will happily feed themselves but i will probably still feed her by hand, not that she will be spoiled.  |

| The little one is really cute. Hope you get at least one more to hatch for you this weekend. How many eggs do they say you should expect to hatch out of the fertilized egg. what happens if she is a he will you need to find him a home? Are he she's determined genetically or by the temperature you keep the eggs at? |

None of the other eggs were fertile so they didn't hatch and chicken little was all alone
Sadly she didn't make it and passed away. R.I.P Chicken Little  |
