The hatching is coming to an end.
The last egg to hatch was White egg #6 (my pick for who would hatch first, LOL!). It hatched at 10:14 am.
This chick needed a little assistance getting out of the shell and seems very weak. Once out of the shell it was very floppy and wobbly. It kept flipping over and staying on it's back like a turtle that has turned over. We gently keep flipping back upright. With some extra attention, it seems to be OK and we moved it to the brooder about 6 pm. The other chicks are pecking at the new chick :-(
We candled the other eggs and determined no more are alive or viable.
