Day 2 after the hatch and all is well. I lost a total of 5 chicks which isn't bad. 2 had splayed legs and the other three had some other issues.
However, my hatch rate was over 80% and that was on mailed eggs. That is great!!! I normally expect only about 50-60% hatch rate when eggs are mailed to me so I count myself blessed.
Here are a couple of photos of what is going on in my basement. I love my new hand-made brooders! They were easy to make and are doing a great job for me in my setup.
Let me know if you have any questions I can answer for you. Also, keep checking my online store page to see what is available for sale.
Blessings,
Wally
