There was never another Pip. We are so grateful to have had the one. We would have been so sad if not one had hatched. As it is, we are just heart broken over the many eggs that never hatched. Six of them almost made it but we think our humidity was too low for them to escape their eggs. There were pretty well formed chicks inside but they had huge air pockets. So, we have just the one. She made her hole in the morning and was out around lunch time.
She's so tiny that the boy had to build her a special ramp to get to her water.
We spent $72 on the eggs and $22 on the Marek's vaccine. Little Pip is one expensive chick. She had better be a SHE. We aren't allowed roosters even if they are for a 4-H project. Fingers crossed.
