Totally adorable - they look a lovely healthy little flock. What was the hatching rate Suz?

The blacks hatch and fertility rate was 100% but 1 died 12 hours after hatch, it pipped wrong end eventually it got out after 36 hrs or so of trying, but poor thing just seemed to give in.

One of the whites egg had a dislodged air-sac on arrival, so incubated remaining 5 all fertile, had to change humidity sponge on RCom at about day 16 of incubation and put a huge dent in one of the eggs when I dropped the lid on it, which then DIS 3 days later - leaving me 4 eggs that all hatched.

So out of 12 eBay eggs I have 9 lovely little fluff balls, which I'm delighted about

Awwww the're adorable!
