    Putting soon to hatch eggs under broody?

    If I think I have a broody I give them golf balls or fake eggs for at least a week till I know for sure they are committed before I put anything under them I want to hatch.

    Help! Chick pipped 48 hours ago, with no progress.

    Personally I'd pull the 3 that are completely dry, they are also probably the most active. At 48 hours pip and no progress assistance is needed. I'd start the process of removing some shell slowly keep the membrane moist. Also check to see if the chick is still alive.

    If all the other chicks have hatched and fluffy id move them to the brooder. Then work with the pipped egg

    Getting more chickens, should I mix my flock?

    I have two coops. They pick where they like to sleep between the two. I don't have a run so I have no advice for that. Once in awhile someone will mixed it up and be in the other coop but for the most part they are all older now and have there spot. I'm planning to build another coop this spring...

    Cockerel with swollen eye; injury or illness?

    It looks more like an injury to me too. I'd flush it good and see if any debris comes out.
