Rhode Island reds!

Just wanted to share my first chick hatch!

Started with 9 Rhode Island Red eggs, 1 never developed at all, tossed it before lockdown. 7 hatched, 1 did not.

These guys went through two 6+ hour power outages in week 1 and week 2 incubation so I’m happy that I still ended up with some chicks!
