I don’t plan to breed her, so purity really isn’t that important to me. Just curious. The eggs were a gift to my friend from a guy whose family is in Pakistan.
I hatched some eggs for a friend and was told they were Asils. Only one chick survived, so the guy told me to just keep it. I know nothing about the breed. This chick is going on 9 weeks old. Does it look like a full Asil, and any ideas on the sex??
Hi neighbor! I'm in Pittsylvania Co. too. I have Silkies and a beautiful English Cuckoo Orpington roo. I have BBS English Orp eggs coming in March. I love hatching. My silkies have been laying all Winter. If you're ever interested in any Silkie chicks, let me know!
Wow! That is a great hatch rate, epecially considering how far your eggs traveled. I'm so sorry about the egg that fell out of the nest. I know that made you sick :( I ordered white, black, and blue/splash. After seeing your pics I wish that I'd gotten some porcelain and lavender. I have 24...
Cindersga, thanks for sharing pics of your gorgeous babies! I was so excited to see them, because I just set some catdance eggs in my incubator. My eggs had to travel across country too. I was very impressed with her packing, so I'm very hopeful to get a good hatch. Your pics just intensified my...
Anyone in Pittsylvania Co. in need of a roo? I have too many roos and need to rehome a few. I have a white cockerel that hatched on May 4th out of Mary Robbin's eggs. I will sell him for $15. I have a splash roo that hatched with a straight comb. He came from a different breeder. Splash is free...
I used a Little Giant, and recently installed a fan for this hatch. I thought maybe that was the problem.. I disinfected the incubator between hatches and ran it without the plugs this time. I used 4 thermometers and 2 hygrometers. I want to blame the post office. That helps my conscious a...
Congrats to everyone with a good hatch! Lionkitty 71, I am so sorry! I know how you feel. I set 30 eggs, and only 5 hatched. I am very thankful for the 5 that I have. This was my third hatching attempt. I just can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. I thought I was doing everything perfect this...
It finally hatched! It had piped when I got up this morning, with no progress all day. I was going crazy! When it finally started zipping, it was out within an hour. Sweet little buff silkie. No action yet from the other 13 eggs.
I woke up in the middle of the night to peeping. I have one pip this morning!
I'm down to 14 out of 30 shipped eggs that made it to lockdown. Crossing my fingers
