The Baby chicks are here.

The peeps are here, It was a long time coming with the ice storm and all. We had to start the process all over again. All the books said 21 day to incubate chicken eggs.after 23 days the eggs start to show signs of hatching. I heard peeping sound ,but dismissed for a bird out side. Ethan came home from school and saw a crack in one of the eggs. That one hatch in the night, four more today. Some of the others show signs of hatching.
This is the first time for us to hatch our own chicks. It is very exciting time for our family. There is one of the picture that shows one of the peep just breaking through the shell.
