- Something cool is happening!
This is Pam.
She has gone broody.
I got eight fertile chicken eggs.
All right, so now I'm gonna lay 'em down.
She's getting 'em all.
- [Bryan] Yeah, I think they're--
- [Missy] Oh my gosh, do you see it moving?
- [Bryan] Oh my gosh, it's moving.
- [Missy] Oh my gosh, it's a baby in there.
(calm music)
- [Oliver] Did you see that?
- [Missy] Yeah.
- [Oliver] Did you hear it?
(laughing)
- [Bryan] Don't cry.
(upbeat music)
♫ Wherever you are
♫ That's where I wanna be
♫ All it took was a laugh and that soft sunset
♫ Big blue eyes looked up and said
♫ This is home
♫ Just runnin' around
♫ You never looked so cute
♫ How can you talk
♫ I've done all I could
♫ Saying I am home
♫ Home's wherever you're with me
- [All] Good morning!
- Hello everybody and welcome to today's vlog.
So Missy and I have a little bit of a confession.
Last night we went to go check on the chickens
and we got a little surprise.
And I'm gonna put the footage here now
that we caught on the camera in the chicken coop
and on my phone because it was so crazy.
We were not expecting to find anything.
- I was not expecting that.
- So if you guys don't know, Missy has eight
fertilized eggs sitting under a broody hen right now.
She's been laying on them for 21 days.
- Yep, today's 21.
- Today is 21 days which means that they should
be hatching or are hatched or ...
- We've got six that are actually alive after candling them
- So hopefully there's six little chicks out there
but I'm gonna show you what we found last night.
(soft music)
Oh my Gosh, there's a chick in there!
- [Missy] Oh my!
- [Bryan] She's okay?
(soft music)
(laughing and crying)
Don't cry!
We just came out to the chicken coop.
It's super super late.
We heard some noise.
Look at this baby chick!
- [Missy] Oh my god!
- [Bryan] Look at how cute she is!
- This is a Blue Cochin,
she's so cute.
- Oh my god. We cannot even help ourselves.
- She's ...
- Look at how beautiful she is.
- Fluffy dry and then the little ...
I wish I had seen her hatch!
- I know.
- I've been watching her.
I've been watching the cam.
And like saw nothing. And she's totally here!
The cutest little!
- Oh she's so cute!
Okay babe, we have to put her back.
(laughing)
- Gosh, I wanna keep her forever! (laughs)
I did not expect to find this.
- I know, not at all.
- I thought I was just gonna get an egg
that was a little bit more like, cracked.
- Oh my gosh. Okay.
- I have to name you now.
- I cannot wait to check. No, let's put her back.
- Okay, okay.
- Let's check'em tomorrow. Cause there might be even more.
That incredible.
(music)
Night Pam.
- Oh my god.
- We might wake up to more in the morning.
- Oh my gosh!
Look at that.
- [Bryan] Isn't that cool?
- It got out of the egg?
- It got out of the egg.
Isn't that funny?
- Yeah, it's silly.
- [Bryan] Alright Oli, so how many chicks
do you think are out there?
- Four of them!
- [Bryan] Four, you think four?
- Yeah.
- [Missy] Ooh, that would be cool.
We have two left then to hatch. That would be neat!
- [Oliver] Come on guys.
- [Bryan] Let's go.
(music)
[Byan] Do you see any?
So this is the cover we put on top to keep them safe.
- Which was very smart.
- [Bryan] Check that out Oli
- [Missy] You can pet it.
- [Bryan] Be very very gentle okay?
Can't let her fall either.
- [Missy] Give her a kiss.
- [Bryan] How cute is that Oli?
- [Missy] You love that baby chick huh?
- [Bryan] Aww.
Fin come see the babies!
- [Missy] (laughs) He gets scared of chicks.
- [Bryan] It's a little baby chick.
(baby laughs)
[Bryan] (laughs) He's like, "I'm gonna poke him!"
You gotta be gentle huh?
- See, I give him little kiss. (kisses)
- [Bryan] So that's the one we found last night.
Do you think there are any more babies under her?
- Uh, I don't think so.
This one's close.
- [Bryan] That's so cool.
You know what we should name that chick?
- What?
- [Bryan] What were you watching this morning?
- Rapunzel.
- [Bryan] Rapunzel! Would that be a cute name
for the baby chick?
- Yeah.
- [Bryan] Aww look at them being so cute!
There you have it guys.
We have a baby chick. And it's so cool.
The other ones don't look like they're too far off.
So we'll just have to keep checking on them.
- I think we'll have more today for sure.
- [Bryan] Yeah.
(music)
- You see that?
- Yeah.
- Yeah, that's so cool.
Today's an exciting day. Right?
- Yeah.
- It's an egg-citing day.
We literally are just glued to this cam
that has Pam and her new baby.
And they're being so cute together! (laughs)
Aww, she's like nuzzling her.
Yes, we have cameras all in the chicken coop.
We were watching everything today.
Hoping that more eggs hatch.
You want there to be lots of chickens?
- Yeah.
- Yeah, we love our chickens. Don't we?
- [Bryan] I have something for you.
- Okay. Why?
- [Bryan] I just got back from the grocery store
and I had to get you something.
- Ooh, it's the everyday miracles
that are the most wonderful of all.
Wishing you and your baby girls a world of happiness.
(laughing)
- [Bryan] I put ...
- And possibly boys.
- [Bryan] And possibly boys.
Cause we'll probably end up with a couple roosters.
- It's a congratulations cause I have babies now?
- [Bryan] Yeah. (laughs)
(soft music)
Alright, Missy's been watching this feed.
And we see now, two chicks!
So all the kids are here.
And we're gonna go and see if we can see the new baby.
You think there's more than just that one too?
- There might be.
But I won't get them out unless they're like dry and fluffy.
- [Bryan] Yeah.
- That one came out dry and fluffy and ready.
- [Bryan] Aww.
Pam, you are such a good hen!
Taking care of your babies.
So that's the first one we got last night.
This is the new one!
Oh it's beautiful! It's gold!
- [Missy] She's one of the Rhode Islands.
- I want it in my hand.
- He has to kiss all of them.
- I touched it. I'm touching them.
- [Missy] Yeah.
- [Bryan] Careful.
Alright, put her back.
Any more babe?
- So yeah, a couple have little cracks.
There's still a Lavendar Ameraucana
that I can see has a little peep.
Another red, has one.
We're still waiting on the two Silkies.
There's just a little crack in the Silkie one.
And I can feel it moving around. So.
- [Bryan] Aww, it's trying to get out!
- You wanna feel it?
Just hold it.
- (woman) Ooh it's so hot!
- [Missy] Yeah.
- [Bryan] They're really hot huh?
- [Missy] Kind of like cup it
and you can feel it moving around in there.
- Ew!
- [Missy] It's like a real-life Hatchanimal.
- I don't feel it yet.
- [Missy] Just wait.
- (man) I feel nothing. It doesn't like me.
Oh I just felt it! That was weird.
(Bryan laughs)
(music)
- [Bryan] So I found a recipe online this morning
for homemade soft pretzels.
So, I whipped up some dough.
It was rather cold in the house though,
so I was gonna have it rise out here.
But now it's all windy and everything's blowing everywhere.
It doesn't seem to be as windy on this side of the house.
So, I have my dough in this bowl.
It's supposed to rise for two hours.
I'm hoping this turns out.
We're gonna let it rise for two hours.
And then hopefully we have big, soft, yummy pretzels
for tonight.
The whole family's just making their rounds here.
Cause we got baby chicks. (laughs)
How many we got so far?
- We got two. I know one had but I'm gonna see if it's
- (woman) it hasn't emerged yet.
- Oh my gosh it's so cute! Look at her!
- (woman) Oh is it there?
It's alive!
- [Bryan] Oh my gosh it's grey!
- Wait, is this a Silkie or is this a ...
- [Bryan] Oh, it's beautiful.
- I think this is the Lavendar Ameraucana, cause it's huge.
- [Bryan] That's our third one.
Look at, it matches your nails Terralynn.
- (Terralynn) Baby penguin undercoat.
- There's another Red down here.
- [Bryan] Another Red!
- Yup.
- [Bryan] We're up to four?
- Yup. Here's one.
- [Terralynn] Wait, we missed that one!
- [Bryan] Oh my gosh! Four! Four chicks!
- [Terralynn] It's huge! Look at this one.
- Okay, we're waiting on the Silkies.
Two Silkies left.
- [Bryan] Two Silkies left?
These are our last two eggs.
And they're both Silkies.
That one's being pecked at.
What about that one?
- [Missy] I don't know.
- [Bryan] You don't see any?
- [Missy] I can feel it, look at.
This one's moving too. I can ...
- [Bryan] Oh, so they're both alive. That's good.
- [Missy] Yup, they're both moving.
They're both trying.
- [Bryan] Oh my gosh.
Terralynn, we could actually have six new chickens
right now.
This one is really cute.
- [Bryan] What are you doing Fin?
- [Missy] You wanna see it?
Watch, he's been scared of the chicks.
But watch now.
- [Terralynn] He's saying "gives kisses."
- [Bryan] Aww
- [Both Women] Awww
- [Missy] It might take a while.
I don't know how long but it's ...
[Bryan and Missy] Oh my gosh
- So we've got two Silkies under her left.
And one completely unzipped it.
So, she basically completely cracked around it.
And now she's just trying to push the egg off her.
Just a few more pushes and this baby will be out.
We see a foot! It's breech!
- [Bryan] Is she gonna help?
Here she comes! Oh my gosh!
Babe, look at that!
- [Missy] I know.
- [Bryan] Brother and sister.
- [Missy] It's so hard to not help it.
Like just pull it off of it.
- [Bryan] Oh my gosh. Look at. Hannah's helping right now.
- [Missy] Oh she just! (laughing)
My gosh. What a stinker!
- [Bryan] There she is!
Aww look at that!
That is a baby Silkie everybody.
- [Missy] Aww, that's so cute!
- [Bryan] I'm just gonna keep her under her ...
Keep her nice and warm.
This is the fresh egg
- [Missy] Ew!
- [Bryan] That that Silkie just came out of.
- That's so gross.
- [Bryan] A little gross.
- [Oliver] Mama.
- That was insane.
We just saw that chicken peck its way out of the shell.
He wants to hold the chick so bad.
- Grab your other hand too.
Isn't that cool?
- He likes this one.
Is this one Rapunzel?
- Yeah.
- [Missy] Careful. Too high.
Cause if she jumps then we don't want her to fall.
(music)
- [Bryan] Alright, before we go check out the chicks
one last time.
I wanted to show you my pretzel Oli.
What do you think?
- Why you put salt on it? I don't like salt.
- [Bryan] No, I didn't put any salt. Lookit.
Mine, has salt.
See I like salt. So I put salt on mine.
But there's no salt on yours.
I made it just for you.
How's that look? Good?
- Good, but it's hot.
- [Bryan] No it's not anymore. Try it.
And Fin is like, "Heck yeah dad!"
Um, that one was for me.
That's okay though, you can have it.
I made pretzels from scratch, you guys.
And they look so good.
How's it taste?
- Good.
- [Bryan] Good? Here I'm gonna take a big bite of this one.
Oh my goodness. It literally tastes like the ones
we get at the mall.
Here you go buddy.
You like it Fin? Take a bite.
- [Oliver] He's just ripping it.
- [Bryan] I know. (laughs)
alright Oli, wanna go check out the chickens?
- Yeah!
- Alright you guys, one last check for today's vlog.
We know we have five little chicks.
We're gonna see if there's another one.
Not quite sure yet.
But we're gonna take them all out.
See if we can show them on camera really nice.
Get some cool pictures of them.
Oh yeah, we didn't get to see the Silkie.
- [Missy] A white ...
- [Bryan] Oh my gosh, look at that!
- [Missy] Silkie
- Alright that Silkie that we just showed you
is a little too fragile.
So we are going to keep her with mama.
Because she was just hatched.
Like an hour ago.
Maybe not even an hour ago.
So we're gonna grab the four healthy chicks that we have
and show them off.
Oh my gosh look at these babies.
- [Missy] Look at how cute they are.
- Alright let's go show them the outside world.
Be very weary of hawks.
Do you remember the first time we got chicks.
By the way, if you guys never saw that,
I'll put it in the Icard in the corner.
You can watch the video where we picked up our baby chicks.
The ones ...
Most of them are in the coop.
And you can see them where we saw them for the first time.
There was hawks coming down like crazy.
So we really had to be careful.
Cause they were ...
- Yeah, they listen for the chirping.
And they're constantly searching everywhere.
- [Bryan] Yeah, totally.
Come here baby, you wanna hold them?
- [Bryan] Look at them! They're so cute!
- They're so cute mama!
- [Bryan] They are cute huh?
Alright, let's show off each one to you guys.
So this is a Rhode Island Red.
So cute.
Here's another one.
Look at these two. Already playing.
And there's another one.
Look at them!
And here's this one.
They're so cute!
- [Missy] We need names. Huh Oli?
- [Bryan] Yes, we definitely need name suggestions.
So let us know in the comments below
what you think we should name these chicks.
(music)
- [Bryan] This has just been such a cool experience.
To be able to do something like this.
I think even, it's so different than just
buying eggs and putting them in an incubator.
Like having Pam be their mommy
and care for them and love them is just so cool.
Thanks babe for forcing me to do this.
(both laugh)
We got some super cute chicks.
Maybe in tomorrow's vlog we'll get to show you a little bit
more of that super white Silkie.
Because we had no idea what that one was gonna look like.
- [Oliver] It's two of them.
- [Bryan] Oh my gosh, look at they're all over you!
(Oliver laughs)
Be really careful kay?
- [Miss] Don't move.
- He's being so good with them.
And yes, be sure to go check out our playlist
of the whole hatching experience.
I'll have it linked in the Icard as well.
So you can watch every single video leading up to this one.
We had such a blast watching these babies get born today.
But I'm gonna go ahead and end today's vlog.
Be sure that you do not miss tomorrow's.
You may see two other chicks.
And we'll see you guys tomorrow.
Thanks for watching.
Make sure to give this video a thumbs up.
Right Oli?
- Up.
- [Bryan] Aw.
Alright Oli, can you do the bye boop?
- Bye ... To the chickens!
- [Bryan] Oh to the chickens? Ok.
- Bye ...
Boop.
