8 so far

We have 8 of the cutest little chickens!  I am hoping to open the incubator tonight and get the little guys out.  I have everything ready.  We are all so excited, it is hard to get pics inside the incubator but as soon as we get them out I will post a bunch of them!  They are little mutts.  Since we don't know what mix Little Roo is and not sure which chick is coming out of which egg and some of the chickens lay eggs that are hard to tell apart none of them will probably look too much like any of our girls either.  We had 1 white egg hatch so far (Queenie is the only one who lays white eggs and she is a Leghorn).  None of the green eggs have hatched.  Maybe next time.  We are very excited to try hatching more eggs!  The mixed breeds we raise are going to be for meat when they grow up.
