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!

Your children are so lucky I can't even get over it! What a great environment for a child. 😃😃😃

I wish I could live on a farm i really really want to live on a farm when I grow up hope it happens 😁😀😊

@Ally Gator .. that’s what thougt !! Hope one day you wil to !! ☺️

[@MollyKuehl4790]

@@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.😀😀😀

[@shaunm3206]

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.

[@MollyKuehl4790]

@@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.🥰🥰🥰

[@TORchic1]

Those chicks are adorable and interesting looking. Can't wait to see them once they're grown. Especially Wu. I kinda wanna know how Ayam Cemani x Silkie chickens look like. Still pretty sad about the other eggs, though.

[@whitehouseonthehill]

TORchic1 - Wu is gonna look really interesting... I'm excited for that, too

[@Ok-ki9hz]

they look like ayam cemani with a afro

[@audreybarnes6527]

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.

[@juantobar6010]

Another thing that played apart in the unsuccessful incubation is don’t leave the “hatching grate” inside the incubator while in incubation, it will decrease both the humidity and the heat. Other than that congrats on your little new chicks! 🎉 cheers

[@rainbowunicornhere9756]

The chicks on the toy tractor was a super cute idea!!

[@liridongjokaj9861]

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 ✌

[@JessicaRabbit2495]

At least three little beauties hatched! So cute! You guys are amazing, I love what you do

fyi those little thermometers that monitors heat / humidity are always off, your better off either getting a higher quality thermometer / hydrometer.

[@kazbleasdale1310]

I love the brinsea heat plates I have 6 of them. Love the incubator, great for seeing hatching. The chicks that hatched are great cannot wait to see them grow and develop. A great experience for you all.

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Kaz Bleasdale - how often do you hatch out chicks to have six of them?? You're dedicated!

[@kadianae]

That might've been the cutest 🐔"chicken tractor" 🚜 I've ever seen. Glad to see the new additions to the farm!

[@alexabedolla1419]

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

[@robyngoern3115]

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.

[@garthgreco4750]

Wonderful hatch can't wait to see what they grow up to look like :)

[@kokiniehaus7710]

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.

This is a such a precious video! Teaching your boys about life and how to raise animals is priceless. Their faces light up and their delight in hatching baby chicks is so heartwarming. It’s sad when you lose baby chicks but it’s great how you celebrate the surviving chicks. So adorable. ❤️🐥

[@whitehouseonthehill]

* Angelfire * - thank you very much

[@vickiboring4165]

sometimes the chicks can get shrink wrapped in the membrane if the humidity is too low. opening the lid before all chicks hatch can cause it to lose humidity. not being rude, just a fyi. and if power loss happens they can hatch a few days late. love watching your adventures with your family. :)

[@feliciab1132]

[@fahadawan8439]

In last 3days from 18_21 don't open the incubator because it will lose all the humidity.. They need more humidity to soften the eggs shells for hatching

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 💖💖💖

My mix chickens have all been beautiful and unique. Can't wait to see what your chicks grow into.

[@j0hs01]

The chicks need high humidity to hatch. Every time you open the incubator the humidity drops. That won't be helping. Really hard not to when you want to get your hands on those fluffy babies I know. Love watching you teach your kids. You are so patient.

[@lockedin60]

Little kids and the wonder of new life on the farm. It doesn't get any better than this!

[@whitehouseonthehill]

James Russell - thanks, James

[@tommyb1two3]

While I understand that you want to adjust the camera so you can have the chicks in frame when they're hatching, anyone who has experience with hatching eggs using an incubator will tell you that the lid should NOT be opened during the last three days of hatching because it creates sudden drops in humidity and there is a risk of the chicks getting shrink wrapped inside their own egg, unable to get out, because the egg shells are porous and the membranes can dry out. There's a good reason why the last three days are referred to as "lock down". Chicks can survive up to two days in the incubator while they absorb nutrients from the egg.

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.

[@leambean9996]

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.

[@Veritanky]

as person who had multiple pets as kid in middle of the city and well...parents did not paid attention to me "taking care" of them resulting in early deaths...IVE SEEN ENOUGH OF DEATHS!

[@JWJWJWJW]

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.

[@Burkisfactfactory]

Remember dear that once the first chick hatched out, don't open the incubater untill all hatched out. The last 4 to 5 days don't open the incubater. The temperature ups down kills the process of making chicks!

[@casiemarcel7762]

Not supposed to open it while they hatching lose humidity & the wrap will shrink around them to where theor unable to get out of the shell. Just some kindly info for next time you hatch some out. Just patiently wait before opening incubator. Let them all hatch out before handling.
