MY MIRACLE CHICK...I apologize but I have to give a little background first. When I first started hatching eggs I was a nervous wreck like everyone else same thing years later when i started again...all the same questions and everything. After a while I decided to just buy the best incubator i...

Too cool I was hoping for a pair

Cool thanks I could use a good egg layer

Thank you. They are so tiny it is so harf for me to tell so I appreciate the help

Thanks yes three were yellow and fluffy and one was Orange

yes they are all different chicks thankd

Bought some flea market eggs and hatched them. Got this one and three looking like they are going to be white. Any clue as to what it may be.

Are these to young to determine sex yet

Can anyone tell if these are boys or girls. Some are older than others.

wow they are beautiful. I purchased what I was told was a light gold neck but the brown is much lighter. Do you think it's really a gold neck?

So I bought a pair of chickens and hatched a couple of chicks from them when all of a sudden none of my eggs were fertile. The only change was that I had added several more hens. My little roo seemed to have lost interest in the ladies completely. He also seemed to lose all the qualities...

. Thanks for the tip. Love the analogy! LOL

I'm probably going to have to do that but catching him will be a trick. I already have a couple of good size cages on hand. I bought him a couple of months ago and he obviously isn't used to being handled. Maybe it will be a good time to get him comfortable with being handled too.

I have had night time visitors near the coop in the past so that's possible also.

Oh I hope that is all it is! I really want to keep him. I also noticed that the plastic owl I keep outside to scare off hawks has fallen into the pool. Maybe the missing owl has also boosted his confidence. I'm going to have to fish it out and put it back up today.
