Three or Four chicks?

We should have done the candling last week to check on the eggs but we only them yesterday. It was an amazing experience witnessing the little movements happening inside the eggs. There should be 3 or 4 possible chicks and we are not sure about the rest. Papa Hen decided to keep all the eggs in the incubator until this Thursday, hoping for some miracles......

This Thursday we will stop rotating the eggs and increase the humidity in the incubator, making it ready for the chicks to hatch. We will be counting down to Sunday, hopefully we can witness the hatching process, where the little newborns will peek their way into Mother Earth....

Stay tuned chook fans!
