I just bought this incubator on Sunday, it was running cool (@98) based on 4 different thermometers (all within 1 degree of each other.) So I upped the thermostat to 101 and it’s maintaining at 99.5. I have eggs due to be here in a couple days. Is this a normal thing? Should I take it back and...

Well in September I bought my new home. It is a fixer upper that is liveable. The people before me pulled all the trim down, there are a few other interior things to do as well. However, all I can think about is the outside. It has a small garden pond that needs redone, and last fall I saw...

I am working on blue laced silver Wyandottes. What is the correct terminology? Thanks!

Buy It Now! 9+ Easter Eggers. I have a white rooster over 7 different colored EE hens. I also have 2 Welsummers and a light Olive Egger and can include those eggs too if you want. I will only be sending blue/bluegreen eggs unless you want the Wellies and OE as extras. All of my EE's...

I have 3 KRC-59 egg trays for bantam or pheasant. They fit in the GQF Sportsman or Dickey's incubator trays. They are in good condition. I am looking to trade them for chicken egg trays. I PREFER the 48 chicken egg trays, but let me know what you have. I am looking for an even swap, or...

Ok, that is not true, I can find LOTS. I can find so much information that I cannot find what I am looking for. I used the search function ALOT on the old BYC, however, now I get so many posts that I cannot get any useful information. An example: I was searching for threads on incubating...

I plan on contacting the Foley's to see if they can help me, but who else is out there? Who are the GREAT breeders out there?

Well I thought I had a couple of people to send me Wellie eggs for my last hatch of the year, but I cannot get a hold of them. I do have some of Faykokowv's wonderful eggs coming, but I would like to get a few more. Let me know what you got and what you want. Thanks!!

I have a Canon Xsi and I like the stock lens that came with it, 18-55, but I find I really like to use my 35-135mm lens more. On my list of lens to buy are a 50mm 1.8 (I would love the 1.4) and a nice macro. I like the 35-135 because it give me a nice range of zoom, I guess it is my best all...

Ok I have searched and found the names of the meds that will help, however I checked online at Tractor Supply and they don't seem to have it. We do have a vet supply that should have it, but they won't be open until Tuesday. I will be going to check out TS to look for myself, but if I can't...

So I am cleaning algae off the inside of my aquarium. Yes, I have algae. I have a slightly planted tank, so I have extra watttage on my lights and I overfeed so I don't have to use fertilizers for the plants....so back to cleaning the tank. So I have my razor blade and I am scraping the...

Will Mh cause red leakage in silver?

Hello all! I have a sportsman, but even before I got it, I wanted larger hatches. I have asked people who I am swapping with if they would sell me additional eggs and send them all at the same time. I guess I like the odds better of something hatching from 15 eggs vs 6. What do you prefer...

I spoke to my main post office in a city with a metro population of 600,000. I had a few moments to ask them some questions about shipping packages. I asked them about the treatment of normal packages, versus fragile. They told me normal packages are tossed, and not much care is given to...

When I am watering the garden I really want to drink out of the hose.

I am sure that this is another great debate, but I am truly curious. When you ship eggs do you just put fragile on the box? Or do you go into huge detail? Cover the box with chicke graffiti? If I am shipping eggs I usually put fragile only. If whomever I am sending them to has things they...

You look on Craigslist free section and you get excited over "Packing Peanuts," you might be addicted to chickens.

Hello, This is the first time that I have incubated duck eggs. I have some that are due to hatch on Saturday and those look great! I am a little concerned with what the humidity should be for the last 3 days. The ones that I am most concerned about are some eggs that are on day 12 (today.)...

We have 2 male pups that are between 10 and 12 weeks old. I am not exactly sure on the age. At what age did you get your puppy neutered. Thanks,
