Babies Hatching in the Incubator

Our neighbor was nice enough to allow her broody hens to sit and hatch some of our guinea.  Then another neighbor loaned us a Styrofoam incubator.  We loaded it up with some of our price chicken eggs and the adventure began.

We have enjoyed watching the embryos grow and move.  We thought we had lost them when we had a power outage during a storm that lasted 5 hours.  Fortunately they just kept on growing.

Tonight before going off to bed we checked on our little babies and noticed one is starting to hatch.  Of course I took a picture and video.  Gosh, you have to hear the baby peeping from inside the egg.  I mean how many people really get to do something as cool as that?  Since I was blessed with the opportunity, I wanted to share it with you.
