beckyfitz Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 (edited) Boys got down this morning to see the first one emerging, seems very healthy too. He is now trying to help one of his brothers/sisters out quite aggressively ! Is this ok or should I get him out?

beckyfitz Posted February 18, 2011 Author Share Posted February 18, 2011 No matter, number two is out now anyway & number one has started cheeping at the next pipped egg! Fascinating to watch. Becky x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffin Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Leave them in because if you take them out you'll lose humidity and the others need that to hatch. The rough and tumble encourages the others to get a giddy up too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beckyfitz Posted February 18, 2011 Author Share Posted February 18, 2011 Well, I have done virtually nothing all day but have managed to feed the kids! One little blondie out first, followed by a more gingery, then this afternoon a little black one. The black one pipped on cue as we got home from school at 3.30 & dutifully hatched in 30 minutes in front of my sister & nephew - a performer for sure! I am worried about one that pipped this morning about 8am - the others crashing around keep knocking it & his hole is now face down. Every now & then he gives a wobble but has manged no more - so tempted to roll him back over??? Becky x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffin Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Leave him, he'll get out eventually! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
