So far things are still holding.

Imissmygirls, there was a leghorn roo in with my original chicks. Can't say as if I care for leghorns judging by him. I was told that his behavior was normal for a leghorn. So, I feel for you. :hugs

The one that pipped at the wrong end I'm still waiting for. It's resting and seems fine so, I'm assuming it's still absorbing it's yolk.

Here is a pic of the first one. I have moved it into the temp brooder.

Very cute and very lonely. I've put a stuffed animal in with him/her and it's not impressed. Hopefully, the other one finishes hatching soon and then it will have a friend. I'm afraid they maybe the only ones that hatch. :(

That should help. When I got my bunny that's what I did. Put a stuff one in. Matter of fact it's still with it. It sometime lays on it and sleep with.

Chick #2 hatched but still is attached to the egg by imbilical cord. I moved it into a dish and into the broader hoping that it would help calm them both down as they were both peeping loudly. The #1 to hatch looked over the side and has settled down. #2 is still talking but, not like before.
