MYRTLE





Surpise!, late last night one of the 2 eggs was "faintly cheeping". I figured it would hatch by morning.
In the AM it had not hatched and the incubator was only at about 94; So I called Truvey and he suggested to raise the temp. immediately.
Well, I raised it to 98 - ish, and half an hour later (amazing) MYRTLE entered this world. She isn't as feisty as TUPPER, so I will keep her in the warm incubator tonight and keep watch on her tomorrow.
Hopefully, tomorrow night I will to put MYRTLE under Meredith's wing. Meredith is doing well with her three chicks, Tupper, Merry, and Pippy.
