Yesterday was the 21st day for egg #2. I checked Ida Mae several times yesterday, and NADA. This morning, I woke up, took care of the kids and headed out to check on #2. I felt under Ida Mae, and the egg wasn't solid. It felt like it had broken! I lifted her up...and this is what I saw!
And hour later...I found this...
Ida Mae was trying to help her/him along...
And an hour after that...I found this precious little chick trying to emerge into the world.
And hour after that, I gently lifted her out from Ida Mae.
Here she/he is! Steven, the nanny's son, named this chick Berry. I love it. She's/he's now all fluffy like Fannie. All it took is staying under momma, and drying off. I love living on a farm!
