angel 0406 Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 well my 2 chicks are an hour old both talking away loudly and trying to stand up but a bit wobbly at the mo they still have there cords stuck to them but im guessing they will fall off like a babies dose when dried out .i cant believe they have hatched im totaly in love with them and want to help them already but the inccy will be kept shut till tonight when hopefully they can come out so what will be will be they have made it this far so hope the next 24hrs goes well for them to such a worrying time love amie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 It is worrying bt you are doing well so far so keep calm Any 'cord' should fall away yes, most dont hatch with any visible but if they do it normally dries quickly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redwing Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 no they are not an autosexing or sex linked breed They should be yellow but some chicks of any breed will have variations in their chick fluff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
