More New Chicks

Three weeks ago I took 23 eggs to a lady I found on Craigslist.  Six of them were Maran eggs that I purchased on Craigslist -- thank you, Craigslist.  She put them in her incubator for me and only charged me $1 for each chick that hatched.  Nine chicks hatched! 


 
I have electric in my coop.  I wanted to put these in the brooder side of my coop until the brood hen hatches her eggs around 8/11 or 8/12.  But something is making the breaker blow and I don't have electricity temporarily.  Luckily I was easily set up for operation in the kitchen.  You can tell that it wasn't a big disappointment to our 8-year old.
