    ducks and chickens

    Has any one ever hatched ducks and chickens in the same batch? I have been offered some duck eggs to put in with my polish eggs. Any tips for pulling this off ?

    Any one know what these may be ????

    Ok so looking around, I dont think that these are full grown. My best guess is going to be a color of OEGB.

    How do you incubate egg carton style?

    do you leave them up right for hatch? I have a carton style turner and I was wondering about that the other day. what would happen if I just turned off the turner instead of taking them out and laying them flat?

    i got these bcm hatching eggs by fluke. Im sure glad i did now the ones i have are very big, my one male is very friendly and is becoming more a pet. I butchered some of the other males and had most of the weigh in at 5lbs after butcher. cant wait to do more of this breed and mix some of my...
