CO did the same thing CA did and ban effective measures to control them thats why you have problems. I did say that they hunt in groups if you call 2-5 critters a "pack" than your right. I am done giving advice on this part of the forum it seems everyone knows more about them than me to start...

I buy in bulk - thousands. The ranger broiler is a feather colored meat bird designed for more of a free range bird.

If by pack you mean 2-3 yes , it is uncommon but not rare to see 5-10 in a hunting pack in late winter here. They are not above scrounging up grub where ever they find it. I just did a job where they were actually eating garbage out of a Dumpster. Dogs in numbers are not safe from yotes. There...

I didn't say they would "hunt" you, I said try to hurt you if there is more than one and you kill one. They don't run like most others do they just keep coming. We have always found around here that if there is one there are more. This is from experience. Neighbor was losing calves and sheep...

It depends what they are going after. Mostly they live on small rodents like mice, rabbits and the like. Some will take down small deer fawns, calfs, and birds like pheasant or small birds on their own. If they really want to they can pack up and run down larger deer and like sized animals...

Quote: I am sorry but that is hogwash, i am a damage control trapper as well as a fur trapper and that is not true. Coyotes are not wovles and even then they will not hunt you.

NO ! yes I was yelling they will not never have kill coons. I do animal damage control for a living and trap fur on the side. I deal with these critters every day of the yr. A caged coyote will starve himself before eating coon meat , unless its cooked.

Quote: Thats why 5 week olds are called fryers, run em on grass and they dont get the fat build up as confined do. I cant get rangers for less than $2 ea , I can get cc for .75 and thats to my door.

Quote: Thats what they are designed to do ! Eat and grow fast thats the whole point of the Cornish cross. If you want a bird to watch and get entertainment from choose another breed.

Am I right in thinking the humidity rises on it own during the hatch ? I don't have to add water right before the last 3 days ? I am new to all of this.

These are 1 and 2 yr old birds.

Thank you very much !!

I have a some barred rock and RIR s that I have been collecting hatching eggs from for a few days. Alot of the eggs are in the Medium range. Are these too small to be used as hatching eggs ? Thanks this is the first time I have really tried to incubate eggs.
