  Consult your theme description please and take note of the explanation and instructions in the “featured Images” section http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/hatch/

  If you don’t see the Featured Image module on your Add New or Edit Post page, please make sure you’ve selected Featured Image in your Screen Options.

  If no featured image is assigned, Hatch will attempt to pull the first attached image in your post. If no image is attached, the theme displays a light gray placeholder.

  Thanks! I was hoping it was something simple I overlooked.

  Got it fixed and working already. Thanks again.
