temperature fluctuations

Hello Everyone! I have 2 black sex linked chicks that are roughly about 2wks old, and they seem pretty healthy! Except that they keep having watery, hazle brown stool. They've been on Albon (an anti diarrheal/wormer) for about 2 weeks and I was getting super confused because they seemed to be...

I'm looking for design help. We currently have a fixed coop, but I want to make a tractor so we can move our chickens around to greener pastures when it's warm enough. We will use electric poultry netting for the run (and let them free range when they're far enough away from the lead paint...)...

Hi everyone, I've followed this forum for a long time but I have a problem I can't seem to find a concrete answer to and would really appreciate some guidance! I purchased a HHMD 56S Incubator and have recently put 13 fertile eggs in, they're currently on day 3 and I'm just really worried about...

So far my incubators temp has been running very smoothly. I have 4 thermometers that all read the same before which was a perfect 99.5-100. Now suddenly it wants to go up to 100.6-101. I have a Magicfly Janoel 12 auto egg incubator forced air. Humidity is 40%. My room temp is 75-77 but my...

I recently bought a forced air magicfly janoel 12 incubator and im currently incubating 7 eggs. 4 barred rock, and 3 Easter Eggers. The incubator was keeping a pretty good temp but I’m on day 5, and it wants to fluctuate. I have 4 thermometers in it. The digital accurite reads 100 steady, the 2...

Hi all! Recently, I moved my 6 week old chicks to their coop permanently. They have only been out there for about a week, and there is no way to run electricity to the coop. Currently, the temperatures fluctuate between the 60s and 40s and they seem to be doing great. However, Friday it is...

Hi everyone! Newbie chicken person here. I have exhaustively researched caring for chicks. I have the brooder box ready. I’ve ensured there is enough room, adequate heat based on age of chicks and I plan on moving them to the coop around 6 weeks of age based on the reccomendations I’ve read...

I have 26 turkey eggs sitting in the incubator along with 6 duck eggs and 1 egg of unknown origin(I am guessing it is a duck egg although it weighs 38g). I set 6 of the turkey eggs and the duck eggs on 19th December. The remaining eggs were set this morning. Because of cold spots in my...
