I don't know how to put on pictures. I'm not great on the computer. Its still alive and moving around in the bator, seems very strong. Its looks like something thats suppose to be inside is hanging out. It just breaks my heart. I keep thinking if it is part of its insides then I wish it would...

I have an egg that hatched early this morning. The chick came out quickly like its very strong but it had a big ball on its behind. Now about 6 hrs later I checked the ball has busted from it jumping around and theres blood (I believe out of the ball) and a thing hanging off the chick last an...

Only problem is I don't use paypal. She does have gorgeous RIR's. Kelly

I'm looking for some RIR eggs to try to hatch. I can send money order. Thanks. Kelly

Thanks Jody. I hope some hatch. I love trying something different as long as someone wants them when they are ready to be moved because I don't have room since I already have chickens. Thanks again. Kelly

My neices Dh wants me to try and hatch some ringneck pheasant eggs, I know nothing about pheasants. Could someone fill me in on bator temps,humidity and what to feed them if and after they hatch? I will be keeping them until they no longer need a heat lamp, is that pretty much like chickens? I...

I'll have to call our Lowes and see if they carry straw but I really don't think this one does. Thanks.

I wasn't sure where to post this. I went today to get 2 more bales of hay for bedding. A couple months ago it was $4.25 a bale today its $5.50 a bale! I think when this is about gone I'm going to try shredded paper and see if it works.

I bought eggs from a lady in Texas and only 2 hatched (I'm not to good at hatching) anyway they are frizzles. They are soo pretty. At 7 weeks the roo was already trying to crow, he sounded like a dog that was hit by a car! Both your chicks are cute. Kelly

My neighbor swears my RIR roo weighs 40 lbs.! I don't believe he does but hes big and so pretty. Shines in the sun and those long black feathers on his tail are gorgeous! Kelly

I have 1 RIR Roo and 4 hens, they are all sweet. Two of the hens will grab me by the pants leg but I believe its because they want attention. The Roo has never been mean. Kelly ----------------------- 5 RIR's and 2 mutts

My RIR Roo is a baby! He's huge but scared of everything. Now the one hen grabs my pants leg and will peck me if she gets a chance. Kelly ---------------- 5 RIR, 2 mutts
