BABY CHICK HATCHING TIME LAPSE - Chicks Hatch Timelapse

Updated: May 16, 2022

Watch some of these fertile Sussex eggs hatch out, they are so sweet once they are dry. Chick 1 hatched out on day 21 and had so much energy, Chick 2 hatched out 27 hours later and Chick 3 hatched out 31.5 hours after chick 1.

This small incubator has different temperatures in different parts of the incubator so it is difficult to get an even temperature for hatching out my chicks.

I am getting closer to obtaining the correct temperature each time we hatch out chicken eggs. Last time the temperature was too high and humidity too low and this time I had the humidity just right but the temperature too low, of course last year was a normal hot October and this October was cold and with uneven incubator temperatures, each egg has different temperatures anyway.

I will have another attempt with this incubator (unless one of my hens is willing to go broody) and may need to invest in a better quality incubator.

I do prefer to let my chickens hatch out eggs and raise them, the more natural the better and hopefully the Poultry auctions start up again so I can acquire some Australorp eggs, as no one I know has them anymore. I would really love a few or more Australorp hens,

It would be much easier If I were allowed a rooster...

What Chickens do you have and what is your favourite breed?
