    Temp and humidity

    Can anyone recommend a good thermometer and hygrometer all in one that I can put into my incubator? I have a brinsea but there is no hygrometer with it and I am pretty sure the temp is off on it. My eggs always seem to hatch 2 or three days early.

    Easter Eggers

    I just put 8 Ameraucana eggs in the incubator. The roosters 3 of them are Easter Eggers that just hit maturity. I have seen them in the yard doing their business with the girls.

    What is a resonable price for processing?

    So if I don't want to do the processing myself what is a reasonable rate for someone else to do the processing? I have found 2 local places that charge around $3.50/bird. Is that about the going rate? Thanks, Adam

    Crackling bowel sounds!

    Has anyone had a chick with a bowel sound that sounds like pop rocks? She/he seems healthy but you can hear the digestion process. Not sure what it is! Anybody have an idea? She/he seems to be growing like the rest. They are a week old as we hatched them ourselves.

    Angel wing chick????

    Do the experts know if this is angel wing? This is an Easter egger and he/she will be a week old in a few days. Or do you think the wing is just to heavy for her to lift since she is so young and getting her feathers so soon?

    How long to incubate?????

    Out of 12 eggs I have hatched 9 healthy babies between Friday and this morning. I have three left that are showing no signs of life. How many days longer should I leave them in Bator before I say they are not going to hatch? Thanks, Adam

    Brinsea Mini Advance Incubator

    I have never hatched my own eggs before but I want an incubator that does it all for me. Is this worth spending 200 dollars on? I only have 10 hens and a roo so I only need to hatch like 6 eggs every couple years for our continued egg supply.

    Dumb question hahaha

    So can you hatch a thawed egg? I have fertile eggs but by the time I get home from work sometimes the eggs are very cold. My daughter and I want to hatch some eggs but maybe we should wait until our weather gets above freezing? Experts please advise

    Another Welthy question????

    My drake has gotten a bit too frisky with the girls and has not torn both of their eyes open to the point of bleeding. I am not sure the one hen will get her vision back in the one eye. Is it time to get rid of the drake? He just seems to be too aggressive for the girls.
