Good morning from Winterpast Farm Petting Zoo in Wake Forest NC. This morning when Farmer Mary went outside to check on peachicks, two more darker colored had just hatched (still damp) under broody hens and one egg was just starting to break in half. Farmer Mary brought them inside to put under a heat lamp with the one white peachick from last night. Three more to come, we hope.
BTW: Everything looks orange due to the red colored heat lamp bulb.
