    Cut on a Chicken

    Yesterday my dog got near my four week old chickens and she accidentally scratched a chickens head. The cut goes from the edge of her left eye, through her ear, and a little bit farther. I have been putting antibiotic cream on it and I cleaned it with hydrogen peroxide. What other ideas do you...

    Not as bad as mine are. I have like three out of thirty-six developing. I think there were a couple blood rings and like the rest were clear.

    EDUCATIONAL INCUBATION & HATCHING CHAT THREAD, w/ Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs

    I have 36 eggs in the incubator for the EHAL. I just candled all my eggs, but only one of them looks like it is forming. Has anyone seen this before? What do I do? The one egg that is developing is being hand turned if I remember to do it, because it doesn't fit in the automatic turner. Any...

    I just got home and checked on my hatching egg and it hasn't moved or chirped in a while. Could that be normal?

    Update: I couldn't see through the monitor because the power went out at our house for 3 hours. Luckily it only got down to 84, but it may have killed the hatching chicks. I do not hear chirping, but the temp is rising. We left early for the chickens and will be getting home about three hours...

    It was dropping pretty quickly but I hope it doesn't go down too far. It's a LG still air and now my baby monitor app isn't working anymore.

    EDUCATIONAL INCUBATION & HATCHING CHAT THREAD, w/ Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs

    My eggs started to hatch this weekend, but I'm gone until tonight. I can see one egg through a baby monitor app and I notice that the temperature is dropping as one egg is hatching. Will everything be alright until I get home tonight? And I'm pretty sure it just externally pipped because it...

    Topic of the Week - Hatching Eggs

    I can see one egg through a baby monitor app and I notice that the temperature is dropping as one egg is hatching. Will everything be alright until I get home tonight? And I'm pretty sure it just externally pipped because it looks malpositioned. Can it get out on its own? Please give advice.
