My eggs were set too early to be included in this year's HAL count. They just finished hatching yesterday and my little serama decided to adopt all of them. I don't think she fully realized what she was getting into .....

My April Fool's prank is coming along nicely..... My little broody serama hen sat on 2 eggs and already has 7 orpington chicks. They're the XL orps from imported English bloodlines, and they'll grow larger than her in about 3 weeks. :lau Surprisingly all 7 are under her. I'll be adding a...

Yes. I'm on page 6. :thumbsup My son & I made a hatching photo collage last year. Too much editing to enter in the contest but remains one of my favs. Tip: We taped a black cloth inside the incubator at lockdown and put the egg on top. Black is easiest color to fade one photo into the other...

Sounds like she's quite the over-achiever!

I agree about the bantam sized chickens. They're small so should not count toward your chicken number. I also ended up buying a second coop - just for the silkies & seramas.... my "useless chickens". Again, none of those little birds count toward our chicken total. Likewise baby chicks...

That's one of the incubators I've been interested in. (The other is the Incuview.) I'd love a Brinsea, but price makes that option not possible.

We got the same type of call around 4:30pm Friday. The school district will try some type of e-learning and then evaluate whether to reopen or not in early April. Sadly, I was supposed to go in with my chickens and present on Tuesday. The classroom eggs are due to hatch then, so I hope the...

So jealous! You always have the best chickens! I'm wishing you a great hatch. So far, I agree with the advice already given. The air cells will stabilize and you can always skip turning them for the 1st day or 2 to give them a little extra time to attach. I like to do a dry hatch and...
