Pro - Does anyone else's nest boxes get soaked in rain?

Very exciting, we've had 7 chicks hatch out of 12 eggs I don't think any more are going to hatch now, they were due yesterday. I'll leave them another 24 hours just in case though. So there are 6 light sussex and 1 white silkie, so all gorgeous little yellow fluff balls at the moment! They've just been moved out of the incubator and are all asleep exhausted under the heat lamp at the moment. They look so cute, just sprawled face down asleep! Might be hatching some frizzles here on Tuesday too, these are the 3rd lot we've done and I have to say, it's a magical experience

Congratulations, it must be such a lovely thing to do. I spend enough time now pottering around with the animals so if I hatched I don't think I would get any work done!

Light Sussex chicks are lovely, gorgeous chubby balls of fluff

They sound adorable.

I hope they are all girls for you.
