Betrix's eggs hatched this morning - I had forgotten it was today! 7 little fluffy chicks - all look lovely. One has a dark spot on her head, there are a couple of lighter ones and one a bit darker but all very similar really. No black lacing like the last hatching. No sign of life from the last egg. We haven't candled the eggs so didn't have a clue which were fertile. We have been getting 100% fertility this season, so wasn't worried. A couple of the earliest chicks spent a few hours cuddling up on the sofa with my daughter who hasn't been feeling well - very sweet and they were not at all stressed. Have a good weekend
