i have one that pipped and has died, 3 or 4 that wernt fertile 9 has hatched and 2 have pipped out of 25 eggs so far im happy with the homemade bator.
do you know what it cost to get this done? that would be great to know what my birds health are. i had 4 month buff orpington get sick for about 2 weeks so now i have been spraying with oxine ah and putting DE where they mostly hangout and in the coop but my birds free range on acre all day so i cant protect them from everything.
sounds like you are doing good. im hoping i get more just not messed up ones any more. this whole chicken incubation hobby thing is harder then i thought. then now im worried my whole flock is sick especially since i been eating the eggs and giving some to family and friends.
i hope it gets better, i hope your gonna keep trying
Some states actually do it for free, I'm not sure about yours, but it is worth it. Be prepared though. If you do find anything they recommend culling the whole flock. I'm hoping to get mine soon, I have to run through another worming first (I don't think they care about that, but I want to be on the safe side)
It looks like it's free in AZ. It cost $25 here in TN for the whole flock. They come and take a blood sample from the whole flock to check for diseases. Each state checks for different ones. Here is a list of all states in case anyone else wants to know about NPIP certs for your chickens.do you know what it cost to get this done? that would be great to know what my birds health are. i had 4 month buff orpington get sick for about 2 weeks so now i have been spraying with oxine ah and putting DE where they mostly hangout and in the coop but my birds free range on acre all day so i cant protect them from everything
