With 24 hours to go, another one hatched last night.  We came down this morning to find that he or she had been joined by another eight during the night.  So we now have a grand total of eleven in the brooder, and six eggs still in the incubator.

The exact 21 days will be up at around 8pm tonight.

I'll post more pix later  :blob7:

How are they getting on now ?

I was wondering too.  Hope it's good news Melbourne12  :wave:

Thanks  for the interest!  I'll try to post a few more pictures later. 

To our great delight, all 17 hatched.  That's an incredibly high hatch rate.  And all 17 are thriving in the brooder.  They're only a week old, so they're still under the electric hen, but they're consuming chick crumbs at an amazing rate!

Here's a picture of one actually hatching, and another with only one egg left to hatch and 5 new chicks in the incubator.

Fluffy chix pix later!
