    Lavender Ameraucana Breeders .... UNITE

    Around here, most breeders seem to be after a more even color but I can't find anything in the standards. Do you have a link to something I can reference?

    Lavender Ameraucana Breeders .... UNITE

    There seem to be some differing opinions on Ameraucana egg color. Some do not consider green egg layers to be true descendants of the rumpless Chilean Araucana. But indeed, egg color is not considered in the U.S. for show birds. http://www.heritagepoultry.org/learn/ameraucana.htm

    Is it safe to use lime in the chicken coop?

    "Barn Lime" is a farmers term for agricultural lime, aglime or A G lime, which is crushed limestone. Limestone (calcium carbonate) is not the same as hydrated lime. The "pelleted" formulas have less dust. Many people swear by it for keeping down ammonia, smell, flies, fleas etc. in coops. Some...

    Comment by 'YborChix' in article 'How To Raise Mealworms'

    We do ours with oatmeal and some chick feed. Originally we followed instructions that say they need moisture from fruits or veggies but even a somewhat dry piece of carrot almost always started mold in the oats and the mold is your enemy. Perhaps for us it is the Florida humidity. If you get it...

    What is the ideal humidity for hatching in an incubator?

    I have an old 1602 with no turners. I added a large pc fan that works best if it is blowing "UP" towards the wafer. Sometimes it seems like the temp is all over the map and who remembers to turn eggs perfectly? But the last one I did, I got 100% hatch. Now it's just a back up for the digital.

    Hova-Bator 1602n and temp issues

    I bought one that was supposedly only used once and had the same issues. I bought a new wafer and added a cheapo fan.
