Well, my Lucky duck (I had to help her hatch bc she had pipped at the wrong end a while back)... She decided she wanted to become a momma and kept sitting on her eggs. Her eggs never wound up being fertile (yes, I have a male duck and water for them to mate). So, I decided to give her some...
I did already put it on bc I panicked ! I literally thought I killed the chicken 😭 I haven’t done anything so far, so I figure if it tries to hatch and it is having a lot of trouble, then ill
Intervene. I had to do an ‘egg-section’ on my duck last year that pipped at the wrong end. It just gives...
Has anyone repaired a cracked egg with candle wax? If so, what did you do at hatch time? Leave the wax on and hope the chicken comes through okay? Pick off the wax? Anyone have any experience? The egg is wiggling, but haven’t seen a pip yet. Hoping I will be able to see it through the wax. I...
My fiancé saw my girl was limping, so we brought her inside to see what was going on and she lost a toe nail. She wouldn’t stand on it at all. I’ve brought her inside, have her a bath to clean it and am drying her now. What do I need to do? Just keep an eye on it ? There was no bleeding. She...
So, my cousin, the one that got me into chickens to start with, just found out that her whole flock has a disease and will probably have to euthanize her whole flock. I am super upset about that for her. BUT, my silkie girls started laying about a month and a half ago.... so, I figured I would...
I do want to hatch some of my own! I have anticipated this day for so long! I have one more silkie girl I’m waiting to lay eggs, I honestly didn’t think they would lay until Spring at this point! I am not sure which girl I have laying yet! I hope to catch her soon! It’s one of these 2 girls!!
I got them from the local feed store. I believe there is a picture of their ‘baby chick’ menu in this thread somewhere, but when I bought them, I was not aware about stores selling them off as Ameraucana and they actually being EE until I posted this thread. I’m okay with it though! I have those...
The black and white one is also an Easter egger. She lays blue eggs, but came from the same place and was sold to me as an Ameraucana as well. She actually has the little muffs though, lol. But if my first one is an EE, then she is too. They lay great eggs though! I can’t complain and they’re...
