July Bator Hatch

This hatch wasnt suppose to hatch til July 25, so they are really earlier. When I heard the 1st cheeps Wednesday mornin about freaked because I knew it was too soon, I hadnt even taken the eggs out of the egg turner, I hadnt filled the water trays like you have to on lockdown, it wasnt even time for lockdown. So I just let nature take its course, I unplugged the egg turner, I used a tube to add water to the bator through the vent pug at the top, then I prayed & guess what...... 32/42 have hatched! This is the best hatch I've had a awhile!!!

This one is a silkie... not sure if shes pure or not.
