Last minute notice.... Shipping out in 2 hours. I had a cancellation. I have 20 Delaware chicks hatched in the last 24 hours. $8. each plus $40. for shipping and box. These will be the FIRST Delawares (F4s) I have released. No guarantees, but am hopeful they will be good quality. SOLD

I try to stay around 20%, and not go any higher. I believe too high protein causes issues. I could be wrong, I dunno.... In my experience - I had at least 4 cock birds with gout and 1 with some kinda weird leg issues. I felt it was because I was feeding too much protein.

You have 22% layer feed? Ours is only 16% here. Calf Manna is like - 28% isn't it? You use that high of protein feed all the time?

Well, I don't know how ya would ever know if the chick was sickly or weak (after finding them dead), but I do know I have had good broodies and bad broodies. One time I had 3 hatching the same day and every one of them killed their first chick, and one killed five!. Some were just dead and...

Mark 14:30 30 And Jesus saith unto him, Verily I say unto thee, That this day, even in this night, before the cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me thrice.

I just got home from Frank's. I got some more Barred Rocks, New Hampshires, and 6 turkeys (his first of the year). I am glad to be home. Yet again, I got lost and wasted 2 hours of time (and gas). I swear it is because I am old. I did not get the typical old age grey hair. My naturally red hair...

I did not intend to point a finger of blame. I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings or said something insensitive. It was not intentional if I did. I appreciate your post, and will certainly be looking for anything out of the ordinary with my own chicks.

Hello Melrose ! Ha! My favorite cousin lives in Melrose, FL and I plan to go visit her this summer! Maybe I will see you! About the chicks (The Old Yolks) - none of my (German bred) New Hamps have ever hatched out like that. However, I will tell you - I hatched a few American bred Hamps...

I wish! Hope you have a great time. Take pictures for us!

New Years Resolution... Eat more eggs, hatch less.

I don't understand the, "let the eggs settle," after shipping thing. I don't do it. However, if it is this kind of weather, I do let the eggs warm up before setting them.

Are you gonna start a thread? I'm ready to salute.

I endorse HovaBators. One most important reason is that they are made in the USA. That is important to me. I like their product, as well. Hovabotor Genesis is my favorite hatcher. Brinsea - of course, not made in the USA. I don't like their customer service and I don't like their incubators.

I have sorta changed my mind on giving 4H kids birds. I think it is better to sell them to them. Then, they seem to take a little better care. In the past I have given them away, and they lose some and figure it is no great loss - as they were free.

How 'bout those New Hampshires back then?! The Chicken of Tomorrow (1948) Part 2 Here is part 1......... about the contest, "Chicken of tomorrow."
