They’re fluttering around in their brooder. Their wing feathers are coming in. Not sure on the gender of the Rhode Island Red chicks. They’re eating well and they love crickets. Noisy little critters.
I added more water and lowered the eggs in the incubator. Rotation has been stopped at the chicks should be getting into their hatching position. Candling is futile since the chicks take up so much space!
First time incubating chicken eggs. This incubator has an auto-rotate feature so that’s a plus. Hoping that the eggs are fertile and for at least one more female. How egg-sighting! If you want this incubator, it’s $65 on Amazon – https://youtu.be/xUZ8-bwMgfo (Amazon Affiliate Link)
