Baby Chick's hatch and first day!

I don't know about you but I still think it's amazing how you can hatch a baby chicken in just 21 days!! It's been an exciting adventure and I'm sure it will only get better! :) Here I have attached the pictures and videos I have from the hatch day! I hope you enjoy!



My sister holding the egg right as it cracked even more.


I had to bring the entire incubator with me to my Aunt and Uncle's house where we were celebrating Christmas on my dad's side. I knew if I didn't bring it...I would miss the entire thing. And I was right. This picture was taken right after we got to their house! You could see it's beak!



This is when it got exciting cuz it was almost out but had to finish "scissoring" it the rest of the way around the egg. Video of the same view below.



First real view of the baby chick and it breathing


First view of the baby chicks wing.

Chick hatched at about 2 pm, December 26th! I tried to upload the video, but it isn't working. I'll try again very soon!

Now that the baby is hatched, here are some pictures as the chick starts to dry and look cute!


Wet, wet baby chick!


Just the view from atop. Comparing the size. Those bowls are just regular cereal bowl sizes. It's a small baby in a big world.


Starting to warm up, dry up and become a FLUFFY little chicky.


This picture was taken at about 11 o' clock that night! Almost al the way dry, but super tiny!

Well, that's all of the hatch day fun! More to come soon!
