    Due to some major changes in my life, I am having to do some large downsizing of my chicken population. I have quite a few bantam crosses that are cochin and silkie crosses. The majority are bantam males and they are FREE and can be used for meat too. But I have several groups of large fowl and...

    Hens eggs develop from start to lay between 24 and 26 hours per literature. That means that the time will slowly change over the days since it is a little more than a 24 hour period. With my hens, some lay in the morning, some afternoon, and even some lay at night.

    Hatching at high altitude

    I know this is a crazy question, but what about using air plants to try to keep the CO2 down. If I put a bunch in the bottom of the incubator? Just wondering if they would absorb enough....

    Hatching at high altitude

    Hi! I am now trying the soda lime idea too. I just started an incubator full of orpingtons and marans. I will candle in a few days to see how it is going. The soda lime is already turning purple. I have been playing with humidity the last several hatches. I have found that I need to keep it...

    Hatching at high altitude

    I live at basically 5000 elev. I am following this avidly. If your experiments even show a small but significant promise of more hatching, then I will do the soda lime. I have already looked up a supplier online. Bookmarked and waiting. Very interested in this discussion. Who knows, you may...

    Yes, I do sell chicks. Right now, I am just hatching out a bunch of Blue Wheaton Ameraucanas. Have Mille Fleur Cochin eggs in the incubator. Have a number of crosses from broodies that started and then finally gave up when egg nests were made into musical chairs - minus the music. I took them...

    I've got an egg-eater too. I have tried ceramic eggs, that worked for a while. But a few months later she figured out that the eggs were not mixed with ceramic ones anymore and started eating them again. I am going to try filling blown out eggs with mustard next. I have read in a lot of...

    Yes, most of us are busy outside. Spring brings alot of work: fixing coops and fences, mucking out, planting, pruning, mowing, etc. I think most of us are spending our time outdoors because of the nice weather we finally are getting. Sounds like you are thinking about getting younger flock...

    3BirdGirlz, I will take a good bantam silver laced Cochin Roo if you bring it over to the Hamilton show. I plan to be there Saturday. Probably won't get there until about 10 am. Bozeman is quite a distance from there.

    Comment by 'ReptileMom' in item 'Farm Innovators "All-Seasons" Heated Plastic Poultry Fountain - 3 Gal. Model HPF-100, 100-Watt'

    Worse design I have ever dealt with in waterers! Barely kept water liquid at base but water froze in the top half during the coldest part of the winter. Bottom comes off with almost any movement. Had more water on the coop floor and walls during the winter because bottom would come off when...
