    Do I have a fertile egg?

    OK, updated pics of eggs does show some life in them.

    Do I have a fertile egg?

    Stop encouraging and giving her hope....... those eggs are duds as far as I can tell.

    What is a "treat" to you?

    "Treats"? These ungrateful T-Rex wannabes should just be thankful their stomachs are getting filled and not ending up in my pot as far as I'm concerned.

    The waste! Oh the wasted feed...

    I make sure they have more than enough of their fill in the morning, which should last them to late afternoon..... then a few hours before they go to bed I load them up again. Seems to be working fine. Trust me, if I could do the feeder route I would, but it is not possible with my open setup...

    The run is loaded with flies

    There's gotta be some sort of Old Wives Remedies to get rid of fly..... I'd imagine fly infestation was prevalent in kitchens back in the old days.

    The waste! Oh the wasted feed...

    I don't use feeders anymore due to the freeloaders (squirrels & birds) eating most of it..... so I just feed them in the morning by tossing in their feed, and later in the afternoon. Save me a ton of money. I'm sure the squirrels and birds hate my guts for that but oh wells.

    Candling eggs help needed

    I don't think any of them are good, at Day 12 there should be a lot of veining. But ask around, I'm no expert on this.

    Summer heat causing aggressive behavior?

    Yes, I'm sure they are hens. The one laying on her back recovered somewhat, she's slowly healing but even still when I let her out this morning..... she went at it again with the other hen! There's just no stopping with these 2, it will eventually end up with 1 of them dying, I think. These...

    Found a random rooster on the side of the road on my way to school with torn up feet and it was getting hot so I brought him home, what now?

    How did you catch him because you said he was very skittish at first? And how did you carry him while bicycling? Anyway, he might end up as chicken soup if you're trying to give him away.

    Why aren't my eggs hatching this year??

    I would go with ye ol' turkey baster method....... errrrr, I mean, incubator. Do you have one?

    Feed costs rising! Transitioning to different feed. *Questions*

    Our economy is a joke. Have you seen how much vehicles are costing these days? It's ridiculous as hell. And when you're scrolling through ads looking to buy things, people are listing their stuff at a stupid price. Our dollar isn't even worth a dollar any more..... more like fiddy cents...

    Summer heat causing aggressive behavior?

    I've got these Oriental Gamefowls that I've reared since day 1 through incubation....... they've always bickered and squabble here and there but recently 2 of the hens have been going at it non-stop, neither refusing to back down! I couldn't catch their first fight in time and one of them were...

    Brinsea Ovation 28 EX - Evaporation Block Alternative

    Just re-use it, I would. I don't see how it will harm the chicks in their incubating process.
