is actually doing a great job!
I gave her one chick, which she was fine with, so now she has 7 buff and 3 whites!
She even graciously held those 5 white eggs while I cleaned the incubator to reload!
Hooray for Broody Judy! 😆

I am curious to know how many chicks I may have unintentionally thrown away in the trash over the past 6 years? 😕

People often focus on early achievers, but rarely discuss those slow underachievers. You know, those ones that are like hockey pucks for the other chicks, shoving them around the incubator? No movemement, pips, zips, nothing.

Until last year, once I removed the dried chicks at 24-48 hours, I would discard the rest. 🥹

Experience has taught me that sometimes we require more time. More time to rest, more time to develop, more time to realize our potential. 🥰

Don’t give up on those underachievers, they may be your unicorn.

My last white that hatched this morning!

These buffs think the egg holders make the perfect rocking chairs, because who wants to sit on the floor, right? 😂
