Congrats....Post pictures of her... My chickens egg color have always varied slightly..... I would keep an eye out on her to make sure that she does not have troubles in the future (does not hurt to take precautions)...and warm soaks never hurt anyone =) My chicks love their soaks

I do not have photos, but there is a good video on Youtube...however I guess you said you cannot view it? When I gave mine a shot, I had 2 ppl to do this (one to hold and 1 to do injection). there are several areas you can give it.... I suggest the back of the neck or the Breast. Make sure you...

It is still pretty early to tell the sex of them... they need several more weeks to start showing their traits. the first picture, it looks a little red on the comb...but the rest of the photos are way to fuzzy to see clear enough. Wait a little and then take a full side view picture and a comb...

if she is an internal layer, I would put her down if it was my hen.... I hate to see her suffer all the time

From my experience, all of those have about a 21 day hatch cycle...and had some go as long as 24 days. Remember that when buying hatch eggs offline, there are going to be many that will not hatch or make it (rate of hatching percent goes down when you buy them off line and not using your own...

Where did they get it from? has it gotten worse? How long have you had the little guy. My First instinct (cause in my be an animal attack, but does not appear to have other damage) is that it may be a FUNGAL infection). Keep the little guy isolated and watch the other birds, to make sure they...

What type of pullet is she? Did you find an egg at all? It is perfectly normal for them to make noise when laying an egg. I have one that sounds like she is dying B4 she lays the egg, one that runs back and forth to the nest box and one tat does not make a sound at all. Just make sure that you...
