    ISO naked neck serama eggs

    About six or seven years ago I purchased some naked neck serama eggs from a seller on ebay. However, this seller doesn't appear to be producing this breed again. I am hoping to find someone else who has these eggs, as I really love the combination. (I have one rooster left from those original...

    Staggered Hatching?

    I really want to do the Easter Egg Hatch along; however, my Serama hen is giving me intermittent eggs. I have 2 eggs that have been on the egg turner this week, and am wondering if I start these eggs now, if I can stagger the hatch by setting my eggs for the hatch along on the 25th as planned...

    The 8th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-a-long!!!!

    I'm in! I had so much fun (and mom did too) last year. I'm hoping she's out of the rehab facility (broke her leg in a fall last month) by then so she can be home to watch over the babies. I'll be setting my own eggs. EE Roo over a flock of EE/Marans/Wyandotte/Turken hens. I'm NPIP and getting...

    Solar Lighting Question

    I got a small $22 solar light bulb from Amazon (link) for my coop and I was hoping that I could use the remote control to turn it on from the house. Alas.... no. So my question is, if I've got to go outside after dark, should I do it in the AM (I have a hard time waking up in the morning, haha)...

     Day 10: Tell us how your hens like their Oyster Strong™ System feed. *To be eligible to win you must

    My hens love it. They rush me when I'm feeding them, and I find they go right for the food. They eat it all up, and I have far less waste. They love both the Layena Pellets and the Omega-3 pellets, and I love feeding them food they love!

    The 7th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-A-Long!

    Yes, all the chicks that I saw who came out of the blue/green eggs have dark legs. Here's a picture of a small group of them. (The one in the middle I believe was out of a brown egg, so either my Brown Bovan Hen or my Silver Laced Wyandotte.)

    One more hatched so I'm up to 4/17 with several large pips and one that still is almost out. This is another one from our neighbor's birds. I'll have to visit her tomorrow and let her know that for my first try hatching chickens that we're doing well. :)

    The 7th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-A-Long!

    Of the 17 eggs, woke up to two chicks hatched (a fluffy yellow from a neighbor's welsummer/buff orphpington flock, and one very dark one with dark legs from one of our blue eggs). So far today I have one more hatch (olive egg), one that looks like it's almost out and several external pips. Very...

    The 7th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-A-Long!

    As of this morning, no pips or anything. But I'm afraid I may have messed up. My temp was a bit on the low side for the first five days. But they were fresh eggs, so I'm hoping it may just take another day or so to hatch.

    New Jersey

    I have a friend in Holmdel who is looking for farm fresh eggs. I'm in MO and have no idea of NJ geography, so posting here. If you're nearby, sell eggs for eating, I'd LOVE to hear from you. She's getting so desperate she's wanting me to ship her quite a few to freeze and keep, and my girls just...

    So excited! My goose egg hatched!

    Thanks so much everyone! Mom called the egg "Tweet" and so that's the little one's name. It's cute because if mom or I start talking to it, it comes out from under the Brinsea brooder. I told mom I bet it recognizes our voices since we talked to the egg all the time.
