Well, I mixed up some cream of wheat the mill moths found, added some plain yogurt and then scrambled eggs hope they like it.

Well, I think my NYD hal is done I had 4 beautiful chicks hatch out of the 8 eggs I set. 3 were infertile, 1 was a late quitter. The last one to hatch did so 12 hours after everyone else. and 36 hours after it's pip. LOL. He must have gotten too excited and pipped early, because he bled a little from his navel after he hatched. 100% unassisted hatch! YES! I have 2 grey chicks with peachy legs/beaks, and 2 dark chicks with black legs/beaks. They are so so so pretty!

I was very surprised by the colors as their mums are RIR and dad is a Auraucana silvery splashy barred something or other color. I am curious to know if the chicks will have less vertebrae like their pops, or have a full tail like their mum. Can anyone tell from the pictures??? The last chick is still wet in the bator, so no picture of him.

I got 11 delaware eggs in my incubator..
Seller shipped a week late.. hopefully sent me freshest.
However the air cells looked bigger like they would for 7 day mark. So who knows.

Awesome!! use higher humidity until day 14

No surgery just treated the wound underneath with iodine and lanolin wrapped it and then wrapped and taped the wing in place next to the body.
very nerve wracking working with those small wings and the swelling is so bad it only goes mostly in place.awes

good job! keep us updated! please

Who's to say I listen to anything???

Uhm... I actually did keep my hands out for the duration... not counting candling and removing the egg turner for lockdown. Other than those times... nada.

Wow... you pushed the envelope on that one, Mike! Glad you're still with us!!!

awesome!

Hey guys, I just checked on my juniors and one of my nine week old Sapphire pullets had a snot like bubble. Any ideas

How to Provide Emergency and Supportive Care https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/1048620/how-to-provide-emergency-and-supportive-care

well, she had it when I was out there. It was a bubble and then as pictured. I did not feel it. She looks otherwise like the others. First is snot picture second is all of them.

Sally this is for you:
This dish is the real hummus,
A mash of boiled chickpea, "tahini" - טחינה
(Sesame past Reed this link:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tahini) salt, cumin, garlic, olive oil, with
A boiled egg, and some herbs.
This dish is one of the healthy dishes that is! Only The one that are made not in a commercial way!

oh!!!!

Chick #10 hatched! she is yellow

what happened to the variety of colors

sweetttttttttttttttt

Seramas aren't supposed to breed true. Essentially you would getr a differant color chick every time. I only have 2 really unique color patterns. But, you never know how they are going to feather out

I need to get pics, I have a few really dark chipmunk! never had them befoer!

Aww... they're so cute! Congrats, veny!!! Kind of like Ron said on the HAL thread... 4/5 ferts ain't bad!!!

Can't say what they'll look like when they mature. Might be a little of both, or a lot of either! Time will tell...
