Hatching Eggs - Chicks / Chickens - Time lapse Video

Watch these eggs wonderously hatch into fluffy chicks!
The first minute is shown in real time - just to show you how slow and exhausting the process is for these little chicks. Click 1:36 to jump to time lapse. It can take 14 hours - so we used some time lapse video to speed things up.
Please ask questions in comments below and I will reply as soon as I can.
After hatching, these chicks lived happy lives and were loved and looked after on a family property. They were a delight to 3 young kids.
Notice how the chicks go through cycles of movement and rest. Poor little fellows - they get so exhausted.
At the start, "Eggs! Ohhh" was an audio of my 2 year old son watching the eggs at the time as they cracked open.
Thanks for watching!
(This was footage captured in 2010 with a Canon EOS 500D. We went through a few memory cards and took ~ 8 hours to film it all. Recently we made a few tweaks and added the soundtrack by the JarrahCelts.)

    This is great. Does it bother them to be born on metal mesh? I wonder if they would have an easier time on some softer substrate

    I don't think so.... I'd say its negligible compared to the stress of hatching. They aren't in there long - after they hatch they get put into a nice warm sawdust basket with a heating lamp, water trough and feed (last bit of the video shows that).

    It's probably not a good idea because bacteria can get inside if the chick isn't ready. The hard shell could also shatter and kill the chick inside. It's best to let them pip on their own.
