Sorry but I'm looking to restart my flock with true Welsh. I have a flock of 4. But my Drake passed away suddenly. The had 2 of my 3 ducks stolen late one night a few weeks ago. But thanks with the offer.
Hi all.
I'm in central texas (Waco). And looking for someone who may have some Welsh harlequins duckling or haching eggs in my area. If know of anyone please have them contact me.
Thanks

Eggs hatch out. Here's the 21 days of incubation chart .
Had 20 hach with the Farm inavotor incubator. Two where not fertile, 3 gave up by day 10. So had 66% hatch rate in the F.I incubator.
My Delaware hen gave up about 3 weeks in. So those eggs didn't hatch.
Over all the Govee works pretty...
I trust the spot check from Brisnea. Most of my eggs will hach at 21-22 days if I'm able to keep temperature at 95 average. With me using the Govee I'm able to get a daily, weekly average. I'm trying to keep my farm inavotor at 99.5 and humidity at 35%. But as with most Styrofoam incubators it...
Set some ISA Brown eggs today from Townline. And yes I know sexlink don't breed true. I'm very pleased with the egg production, egg color and shell quality. But i was somewhat disappointed by the egg size. Not seeing that XXX large eggs size they bost. I'm still pleased with the my birds though...
Nice job. Can't see why it shouldn't work. Ventilation is probably just a guessing game. So keep us posted on what works. I haven't found anything on how to calculate a fresh air exchange rate.
I'm thinking of building me a new one out of wood as well. But going to try and keep it a bit bigger...
Hey all... I'm in the big city of Gholson (just 12 miles north of waco). And looking for someone who might have some blue laced red wyandottes hatching eggs within 100 Miles of me. Don't have to be a show breed but some nice representation of the breed.
Thanks in advance.
I have hatched out about 26 chicks 10 days ago. I have them in a broader that's 4 ft by 6 ft encloser with heat lamp. I also have 5 chicks my brown legghorn hatched out 3 weeks ago that are still with her now. Now the problem is now that's going to get cold over the next few days (high in mid...
They all look like sliver to me. Notice the blue on their wings. Also they are still quite young. I noticed their legs are not right yet either. But that could be the lighting. Drake legs should be turning orange. And ducks should be dark gray. Again give them time they will turn into some...
My wife saw this fuzzy little yellow and blue chick in Atwood about 3 months ago. I was going to give the little guy time to mature some before finding out the breed. Best I can tell it's a cochin but not sure if it's a self blue or a lighter color standard "blue" cochin. He seems to be to...
Seeing that you work for one. What do you call the place that takes in the battery hen? Retirement home for battery hen? Would like to know so I can goggle them for texas.
Thanks
Just about all goat hoofs are done the same way. I don't try to over do it if it's the first time. Just get them as even as you can without any voids to trap dirt in. I get my shears at TCS for about 10 bucks I'm thinking. Had them for over 2 years now. You'll see a pic of them in the link...
Hi all, I'm just a few miles north of Waco. Looks like I'm not going to get my fence up this weekend like I had planned to. Got 90% chance of rain today. Just checked out the radar and looks like another storm is coming from the south west. Man this has got to be the wettest spring I've seen in...
