Boys are getting so big. I can’t believe Isaiah is already standing on his own. Glad you got 3 chicks. Bet it was power outage. Go Chiefs.

@@fromupnorthc546 can you even imagine how stimulating this is for a little child? I mean wow my parents gave me all the toys I want it I even got a pony when I asked for one but we didn't live on a farm so we had to board at somewhere and never really got to see it so that wasn't really fair. But I don't know I think having a bunch of chickens in my dad hatching chickens throughout my childhood would have brought me very fond memories. To be honest I think I would trade my whole childhood in just to have this childhood.😀😀😀

I was thinking the same, how much richer a childhood these children have. Playing with chicks and being aware of what is around them instead of playing games on the computer etc. They may get sucked in by that stuff later but what a great grounding.

@@shaunm3206 I was born in 1990 and I even still grew up when the dawning of video games and computer games was becoming really big and it's only gotten worse since then. Clearly this kid is not old enough to have outlived those creations but he still managing they have a great life and I think his dad is doing a great job with all of them.🥰🥰🥰
It would have been nice if more chicks survived, but the ones that did hatch are absolutely adorable! Can't wait to see what they grow up to look like. Your videos are great!

I have a hova bator 1588 for 2 years now and the first time i hatched 34 out of 42 eggs,and also I have read almost everywhere and in the instructions that you must not touch the incubator from the day you increase the humidity and remove the egg mover until the 3rd day of the first chick hatching...also the power outage does not mean anything unless the house got very cold and that incubator doesnt seem very insulated if at all.I had many power outages too,although it was spring...also the eggs left should be kept in the incubator until day 24 or 25 cause the chicken eggs need 21 days to start hatching although a few tend to start earlier...and the yolk I think gets absorbed fully in the last 24 hours as it's hatching...you probably know this better than me 😂 just saying what I know...good luck with the hatched chicks and I hope they all survive ✌
fyi those little thermometers that monitors heat / humidity are always off, your better off either getting a higher quality thermometer / hydrometer.
The chicks on the toy tractor was a super cute idea!!
That might've been the cutest 🐔"chicken tractor" 🚜 I've ever seen. Glad to see the new additions to the farm!
I haven’t been keeping up with you guys for a while and it feels good to watch you guys again❤️❤️
The last frame at the end was so wholesome and sweet omg- and also visually such a creative shot.
I did some research and I found out that when there is a drastic change in temperature of the incubation period it can cause eggs to hatch a few days early. All I know is this is truly amazing
I absolutely love your videos. What wonderful parents you have become.
I absolutely adore how gentle and loving your boys are with the chicks.
No matter how many times you see an egg hatch, it never loses its power to amaze and inspire.
Awww... The 3 that survived are SO CUTE. (Never thought I'd find watching chickens so interesting and entertaining. But I DO!) I LOVE the way you're teaching your boys how to be gentle. So sad you lost SO many. But thank you VERY much for sharing. I was waiting and watching!!! Can't wait to see what you do next!

This is the different between city kids and rural kids. All of them have come to terms with the life cycle, and understand death. Urban kids never really get to experience and come to terms with mortality until they're adults.

Most urban kids do understand death, just because they dont live on a farm doesnt mean they cant have pets, friends, parents, or grandparents that one day die.

It's incredibly ignorant to assume that urban youth don't understand death until adulthood. There are plenty of homeless youth in the cities, many die, many of their friends die. There are plenty of children in cities that grow up in unstable homes, with parents that leave or die when they're young. There are plenty that lose grandparents, or uncles, or cousins, or siblings. There are kids from good homes, bad homes, and no homes that understand the cycle of life and death. There are plenty of kids that grow up with pets that have lived and died and given birth anew. You shouldn't assume that "city kids" don't get to experience or understand these things.

Thank you for your video. Eggs hatching early tends to mean the incubator is running too hot, 1oC increase results in premature hatching, circa 24 hours. Worth checking. I had read somewhere that incubators are built to house 50% of the suggested egg volume. Looks like this one a sized to house the full number, a great find.
That’s awesome!! Love watching all your birds.

Fantastic video. The boys are so lucky to be brought up in this environment. Seeing both birth and death. Something you never learn at school. It was a shame that more did not hatch but it's amazing the breeds you created. I'm sure it won't be the last time you hatch some more. Loved the chicks playing on the kids toys. You always look a relaxed family. I'm sure it's because of your way of life. I'm not saying it's an easy one but you can see your family more. Keep them coming and a big thanks to the boys. They must love it. Take care and stay safe 💖💖💖

I incubate with a Janoel 24 and have Good hatch rates. I’ve always been advised not to open the lid after lockdown at 18 days when I take out the turner, definitely not during hatching 🐣 as they can lose the humidity and become shrink wrapped.
Beautiful colors on the chicks. 🐣🐣🐣
