All done

We ended up with 11 chicks.   There was one egg left in the Incubator, but it hadn't started pipping by Day 23, so we decided to close it down.

The weather forecast is grim, so we're going to delay moving the chicks to the brooder in the shed. Last year, when we had 19 of them, we moved them on Day 3. 

They're all gorgeous little chicks.  Spike's offspring are already behaving like their Dad.  One of Henry's chicks has a red head. Absolutely gorgeous.
