It's that time of year again... 🐣CHICKEN HATCHING!!! This year we have 36 eggs in the incubator! We are expecting around 30 chickens to hatch throughout the rest of the week.
Mrs. Barker has 10 fertilized eggs that have begun hatching today and will continue to hatch throughout tomorrow!
I have 10-22 fertilized eggs. Half should hatch today/tomorrow and the other half should hatch Thursday/Friday. I have two sets of chickens put into the incubator on different days.
We are very excited for our chickens! Feel free to share the live streams! Below are links to our YouTube channels so if the stream ends for whatever reason you have access to the latest video! We will be leaving the live stream active 24/7 the rest of the week!
