      Randy, the one in the hatching video (posted at the bottom of this post), is the first chick to successfully hatch in the incubator. The other seven in this video were hatched by a hen.
       
      Randy and siblings, in the coop at the house.
      They will be moved to the farm very soon.
      Randy is the cockerel standing on the piece of wood at the end of this video.
      14 more chicks will be put in the coop in their place.

      Since we began raising Silkies in May, we have slowly gravitated toward them as our exclusive chickens. They are easy to raise, the hens seem to make good mothers, and the Chinese (and others) apparently love this breed over all others to eat. 
       
      Recently, we brought two of these little guys from the farm, as we are keeping the larger chicks - a couple months old, up to full grown chickens, at the farm. In this case, I am very happy that we did. Most of the Silkies tend to shy away from us naturally. However, these two little guys have been like children ever since we got them to the house.
       
      You can hold them indefinitely. They will stay in your hand as long as you let them. They love to be held and will chirp endlessly if put back in their box. Yep. Spoiled rotten already. Anyway, here are some photos of them from yesterday:

      Well, it's paid off, kinda. 
       
      About an hour or so ago, our first little Silkie chicken hatched in the incubator. This is my first successful hatch. The little things lungs work well, I can tell ya that. It has been chirping since before it was completely out of the shell.
