Thanks for watching Wu hatch out some chicks! Good luck in all of your spring hatching! Thanks to Magic Spoon for sponsoring today’s video, click my link www.magicspoon.com/whitehouse and use code WHITEHOUSE for $5 off your order!
My silkie hen Sally hatched out 9 of the 11 eggs she was sitting on, just a few days ago! 7 fluffy and colourful silkie chicks (one with white skin!) and 2 normal chickens. One of those looks like a penguin!😂♡
It’s bizarre to me that this channel isn’t as popular as other family channels. This is how I would actually see a family channel vs the facade of other family channels. This family is so genuine. It’s unreal and I am here for it.
I think that in order to get REALLY popular, the parents need to exploit their children for views. I feel that "White House" mainly view themselves as a "Homesteading/startup farming" channel, not a "Look how cute our family is!" channel. There kids aren't being recorded 24/7, there seem to be no videos on discipline issues, potty training, school problems, family conflicts kinda stuff. Those things get lots of views, but aren't healthy for the kids. I really prefer it this way!
Bantams are such great mothers. I swear our rooster went clunky once after his girlfriend passed away while sitting on their eggs. Cos she died 5 days b4 they hatched and he barely left the nest!
Wow. That amazing! DId the rooster end up hatching the eggs himself? I am sorry you lost your hen though. Did the chicks end up being okay? How lovely the rooster was smart enough to know what to do.
Becky, you have an absolutely infectious smile. That thumbnail had me smiling before I even had the chance to watch the video. I needed that. Thank you for sharing your warm personality with us.
Our eggs that have been incubating lately have hatched! Unfortunately, only one chicken made it through. He was born really healthy though, and he grew even faster than our previous chickens!
I've just done a hatch and gotten poor results only three made it out of 11 sadly the rest for some reason did not hatch although they were pretty much fully developed 😔
@@shimasfaris2917 Glad you got three. Was it an incubator hatch? I found will mailed eggs I got a really low hatch rate (i could see the air cells burst inside them when I candled them after they arrived), but with 9 eggs freshly laid by our chickens (now we have a rooster) I'm looking forward to hopefully 7 of them hatching. Looking good one my last candling. fingers crossed. Hopefully you will have better luck next time.
We just hatch 9 silkie babies from our magic fly incubator. We started with 14 eggs. First week, we had 1 quitter. 2nd week, we had 2 quitters. Hatch day came (day before Easter)and we woke up to 6 hatched babies in the incubator. As the day went on, 3 more hatched. 2 eggs didn’t make it. We have three mixed colors, 5 gray ones, and 1 little black one!!! Love the silkie babies!!! Congrats to you guys!!!!
Thank you for doing what you do. You are the the reason why I now own seven chicks and two ducklings. We are going to transition the ducklings into a coop soon. It is insane how fast they grow compared to the ducks!
Imagine being that incubator hen! Chilling on some eggs while everyone is super proud of you, while you're the first to see the cutest things in the world! I'd sign up!
When Isaiah fed you a spoon of fruity cereal 😍😂 I love his reaction when he understood that it was funny. Reminds me of when my nephew was younger. He's turning 12 this year and I can't believe it!
Silkies are my favorite breed of chicken. They are friendly and if you spend time with them when they are little chicks, they will usually come when called and sit on your lap and let you pet them all day long. I always kept my Silkies separate from all my other birds. We had a Silkie that was a multitude of different colors, she was the most beautiful chicken I've ever had. Great video, thanks for sharing this.
We had one silkie that laid eggs. She laid them in the corner of the coop none of the chickens went to. She wouldn't sit in them. We had brooding boxes, but only one silkie rooster would go in them to sleep. That's it. I used an incubator on the eggs. Only one hatched... on day 23. I think we just had some screwed up silkies.
Those little chicks look really strong, healthy and sturdy. They were lifting their little legs really high to walk in the grass with no trouble or stumbling at all. Wily and Healthy Baby Silkies.
That's so good to know that silkies like to brood a lot...I have 4 silkies and one of them started laying eggs last week...I really hope she broods on them soon!
Super cute chucks Silkies incidentally from experience the fastest way to stop a broody hen from sitting all day is to cool her down they brood when they get hot. So pop her in a cage with no nesting material and raised on bricks to let the air flow all around her keep her shaded and free from other hens and the rain give her food and water allow the air to circulate around her especially under her leave her there and once her temperature drops usually a couple of days she will stop brooding and go back to eating and running about.
We call brooding hens 'cluckers', and when I told my mom about 'brooding hens' she had no idea people called them that, we've always called them 'cluckers'. Probably due to the fact they cluck very loudly when they're broody. Interesting bit of regional dialect for you.
I'm obsessed too! I think it's the anticipation. You just dont knwo what is happenign (even with candling which gives a marvellous glimpse) adn then comes the magic of hatch day! I love it.
Silkies are the breed with the most "broody DNA"... I have 6 breeds right know, silkies are the ones that EVERY hen goes broody each year, some of them more than twice per year.. Amazing breed!
We had our first natural hatch under our bantam cochin. It's so exciting to see. We're building a little silky flock for this very reason. Thank you for sharing the tips!
Beautiful video: lovely children, lovely farm, lovely birds and animals. You all seem to get along famously. My Bp has dropped just watching the interactions. Thanks so much.
We had this hen years and years ago who always wanted babies but she wasn’t the best sitter. Technically she never turned her eggs and they would go bad. She would literally sit till she died if you let her. But I ordered 12 babies from McMurry Farms for her that I got over nighted to us and I put one in every 10 min during the night and when morning came she was the happiest hen ever.
Hehe you telling the guinea fowl to be quiet is relatable. My school has (had? Idk, we're building a new coop so they're not at the school farm atm) a small flock of guinea fowl and they're so loud all the time. One time they escaped their coop and onto the field and we had to corral them back. I feel bad, they really need more space, space we don't have
I just love all your videos! Thank you so much for sharing. We're inspired by your family and your farm. This year we introduced Turkeys, Ducks, pheasants with our chickens. Chuckers are coming and another variety of pheasants along with geese next. Keeping that husband busy building mobile coops :)
We had silkies and some other broody hens growing up. My mom would also take the Chick's away the first time the mama sat, and made her sit at least once more before she got to just raise the chicks. Always made me a bit sad to take them away. If you compare chick's raised by a good mama hen VS raised by humans, its pretty fascinating. I really like chickens!!
I have 2 silkies raising there shared babies. Now 2 more are setting together. I have another raising 3, 2 of them are RR. They'll hatch any eggs we give them. Which is good because were trying to hatch seabright eggs and they really don't go broody. Love your channel you have beautiful birds.
When they said this is our rooster snowball it made me sad because this morning my silkie 4 months old was very sick and died and I’ve been trying to not think about it but that reminded me and it made me sad
I love watching you guys, especially with your family and teaching your children about life on a farm! Would you guys make how-to videos on your nest boxes and favorite chickens? I love seeing them!
Your family is just gorgeous and I love the peaceful energy you guys exude! Beckie you are absolutely beautiful inside and out. Wu is a CHAMP 🏆 as well! Keep up the amazing work!!
How fun. None of my chickens really go broody but I just had a turkey go broody and she is sitting on some chicken eggs right now. Shes been doing great im assuming they should start hatching here in the next week. Hoping I get a couple at least. Its definitely nest to see other bird take care of anothers babies. Love your videos. Take care you guys!
My silkie hen wouldn't incubate. I used an incubator, but it took 23/24 days. I went to unplug the incubator thinking it was unsuccessful when I saw pipping.
Thanks for watching Wu hatch out some chicks! Good luck in all of your spring hatching! Thanks to Magic Spoon for sponsoring today’s video, click my link www.magicspoon.com/whitehouse and use code WHITEHOUSE for $5 off your order!
Can we get an update video on the mandarin duck eggs
My silkie hen Sally hatched out 9 of the 11 eggs she was sitting on, just a few days ago!
7 fluffy and colourful silkie chicks (one with white skin!) and 2 normal chickens. One of those looks like a penguin!😂♡
Great content!
Our chicken is not that broody and I don’t know if she will be broody this year but I have hatched some chicks with our incubator and they are cute ☺️
Hello Is it ok if you can send me silkeys pls
I LOVED how sweet it was when Isaiah lovingly touched Jake's face 2:12 and the look on his face in the cereal sharing scene. So darling!
My heart melted at that exact moment😂❤️
@@dylanaquino7517 So did Jake's, the young softie!
I’ll probably watch that over and over again
I know! I watched that several times. What Isiah emotionally observed, felt, & communicated even at such a young age was remarkable & beautiful.
@@whitehouseonthehill just one question what do u do if a broody hen steps on her chicks
My day gets 10 times better when White House On The Hill posts a new video!
Same
Ikr
I agree.. all the love from Iraq ❤️❤️❤️
Min to
Same, I know that they’re really busy but I wish they could post more often too.
It’s bizarre to me that this channel isn’t as popular as other family channels. This is how I would actually see a family channel vs the facade of other family channels. This family is so genuine. It’s unreal and I am here for it.
Yeah other family channels just try to use kids for money but this channel man they respect the kids for once

@@r.k.dreamingspetchickens1266 yeah he did. Weirdly the chick's didn't really bond to him however. Instead they followed round the first hen they saw.
Goodness! Isaiah made me cry when he fed you the cereal! What a beautiful boy.
That incubator is like a mansion for the tiny little chickens!
The little coop? Yep, all kinds of space for those little guys
Becky, you have an absolutely infectious smile. That thumbnail had me smiling before I even had the chance to watch the video.
I needed that. Thank you for sharing your warm personality with us.

@@funnyfuel-x666 a pretty bad one
The surviving chick absorbed the life force of the others
oh wow. Bad luck! Did it seem like the others chicks were doing okay before they hatched? And how did the one little chick cope on his own?

Don’t mess with Wu or else you’ll have to answer to her 9 children😂
lol

Shouting "Be quiet!" at guineas... Does that ever work?
it dont work on any noisy bird!
Thank you for doing what you do. You are the the reason why I now own seven chicks and two ducklings. We are going to transition the ducklings into a coop soon. It is insane how fast they grow compared to the ducks!
Omg I'm so glad that the silkie mom actually got to hatch out her babies and she was watching them carefully. ♥️
The Guinea fowls are always hilariously loud 😂
Baby chicks make the best sound in the world, when I get to hear the sound in person I love it
Wu is an awesome foster Mama ❤️
It was lovely to see silkie hatching project
Thank God u do not make us wait for 20-21 days to see the results
Always enjoy ur videos . Stay blessed
You guys, giving you sons the best education and life possible... massive high five to you all 💕
Thank you, Jackie ❤️

Agree. The chicks learn so much faster!

Isaiah feeding you in slow motion. Lol so cute! Baby chicks are so cute can't wait to see what they will look like when they get their feathers.
👏
Im ten yrs old I cant wait to get my chickens this year and next year get chicks from them im literally smiling with joy! Thx for the vid I love it.
Those little chicks look really strong, healthy and sturdy. They were lifting their little legs really high to walk in the grass with no trouble or stumbling at all. Wily and Healthy Baby Silkies.
Hello brother I'm from the india 🇮🇳 my day 100 time's better when white House on the hill post new video
Love this! Thanks for sharing. We are currently on day 21 of our own Silkie Hatching project. Fingers crossed!
His middle son or the kid with the red jaket has the same jacket as I do Lol
The editing on this is just perfect 👌. Keep it up!
After a long day at school I come home and see that you guys posted that made my day go from 0 to 100. Thank you so much for the amazing content
Thank you for inspiring me I finally got my first incubator and I got three silkies ! I'm hoping to catch some of my chicks hatching tommorow on video
That's so good to know that silkies like to brood a lot...I have 4 silkies and one of them started laying eggs last week...I really hope she broods on them soon!
I got the notification at work from white house on the hill and simple alaskan life. My day shot up so much better
I just love your family. The way you do everything together. The education and experiences your boys get is priceless.
0:50 made me laugh more than I think i should've.
Guineafowl: **Mayhem**
"HEY! BE QUIET!"
I have a silky that is blind :(
Super cute chucks Silkies incidentally from experience the fastest way to stop a broody hen from sitting all day is to cool her down they brood when they get hot.

So wonderful to see an ayam cemani hatch out silkie chicks! They were so adorable when they were freshly hatched out. Little handfuls of fluff!
I love the fact that you do so much for your family and your farm animals

Ha. That's funny. Makes sense though
We always call them clucky
Why is it so fascinating watching eggs grow, hatch, and turn into adults?
I'm obsessed too! I think it's the anticipation. You just dont knwo what is happenign (even with candling which gives a marvellous glimpse) adn then comes the magic of hatch day! I love it.
Silkies are the breed with the most "broody DNA"...
I have 6 breeds right know, silkies are the ones that EVERY hen goes broody each year, some of them more than twice per year.. Amazing breed!
I was waiting for a new video desperately ❤️
The white one with black strips will probably be a partridge because all partridges have stripes when they’re young! They’re all adorable!!
This was lovely. Beautiful shots and so much tenderness 😇
Amazing
We had our first natural hatch under our bantam cochin. It's so exciting to see. We're building a little silky flock for this very reason. Thank you for sharing the tips!

Happy Spring!!! 🐣🐣🐣
The way you screamed at the Birds😂
😂
Telling Chickens to be quiet. haha. Those boys are growing.
That's a great foster mom hope she teaches them the ways of the chicken God bless you guys hope all your hatching is a success.
Silky chickens are my favorite, they are so sweet 😂❤
Hey...we luv u...keep inspiring us by ur cool animals....i wish i could also have a incubator and farm like urs....😍
I love that yall fill your videos with lots of fun facts about your chicks.
Haha 😂 I love the title. So I found a bunch of duck eggs today so this is very funny that came out on the same day.
The black he. Is a great mommy. She seems so content to be a mommy l. Adorable.
I love your videos I looked all over for a video like this . I should have known I’d find it here
Thank you
I’m wanting my silkies to raise some
Lots o' birds 🥰
Loved seeing the Mama hen with her chicks! We enjoy watching your family working with your birds :)
I hatched out amazing color silkies
I love the feel of silkie it's really unique I miss them
legit when some eggs hatch my day gets 100× better just watching them starting to be in life is so heartwarming 😊
The white one with stripes is a partridge colored silkies. They're beautiful as adults!
We had this hen years and years ago who always wanted babies but she wasn’t the best sitter. Technically she never turned her eggs and they would go bad.

We have a hatchling that looks similar to the little stripped one, but with an additional leopard like strip. So cool!
Never missed a video

Love the videos guys!! I am so excited for this nice weather rolling in. Keep up the great work.
I smiled through this entire video. Thank you for sharing! 💕💞
Fur is fuzzy, feathers are fluffy. XD The best incubators are fluffy. Haha 😂
This video was just pure sunshine and happiness!! Thank you for sharing!! 💖💖💖
Couldn’t deny this notification
Me neither
Aanndd now I have hatch fever. I have a silky mix named shrimp. We have weird names for our chickens.
Put them in cold water, it works like magic, the moment you put them ob cold water they stop brooding.
I love this channel, I always look forward to more videos. This made my day 💕💕💕
Aw that was a lovely video - made me smile all the way through. Thank you!
Thank you 😊
Wondering also if you guys have ever thought of giving farm tours, especially with the aviary you are building.
So cute to see the start to finish chicken project 🐣🐣🐣
Your family is just gorgeous and I love the peaceful energy you guys exude! Beckie you are absolutely beautiful inside and out. Wu is a CHAMP 🏆 as well! Keep up the amazing work!!

I had the hardest time incubating my silkies' eggs. I finally let my hens do it. Now they're doing great. 6 chicks hatched this past week.
My silkie hen wouldn't incubate. I used an incubator, but it took 23/24 days. I went to unplug the incubator thinking it was unsuccessful when I saw pipping.
I wanna say thank you guys , after having a bad day i watched ur videos that makes me smile , thanks
We got chickens and I love them, they just started laying:)
I recommend that you should get the nest boxes out of the wind that’ll help make the chickens more comfortable🐓🐓🐓🪶🪶🪶
Love the chicks...especially the one with the racing stripes!
Love watching your homesteading adventures
