I am considering hatching out some of my hens eggs. I have quite a few roosters and 33 hens. I have some BO who go in and out of broodiness. Just wondering if I should let one set some eggs or have more control and do the incubator. I am just not sure as I have never done it before and just...

I have 3 week old chicks right now. I am moving the 3 week olds to the coop this week, right now they are in a very large brooder. I am new to this and am not sure what to do. A vacation bible school has 9 chicks - a little over a week old that they need to find a home for. Can I put the...
