    egg fertility

    To funny Natalie. I didn't want to crack open the eggs to check and I wasn't crazy about setting eggs that might not be fertile. I only have the 3 roosters now, so was just trying to figure out who they may be covering. Was hoping the non-layers weren't getting bred, thus making it easy for me...

    egg fertility

    Is it safe to assume that if pullets are laying and roosters have access to them, the eggs will be fertile? Also, if there are older hens in the mix who are currently not laying due to the winter break, are the roosters leaving them alone or hitting them up regardless if they are laying or not...

    BYC'er ON TRIAL! *** UPDATE*** and Video pg 2

    When I get a chance, I will write and post what's happening here with updates. In the meantime, there is actually about 70 chickens here and 40 of those are between the ages of 2 weeks and 3 months. So, a 1/4 acre really is enough. And remember, too, they hatch and are sold, so not every bird...

    Double stacking eggs in the 1588 Hovabator

    Well....the guy I'm hatching for said he'd give me 5 dozen....when I emptied the 5 gallon bucket there were 181 eggs in there. Can't let a good egg go unhatched, right? Oh, and then there are the 2 peafowl eggs I found in a friends barn today that were'nt there yesterday! So many eggs, so little...

    Double stacking eggs in the 1588 Hovabator

    Hey- I have the 1588 Hovabators and was wondering about double stacking eggs for week until one of the other bators frees up. I've put some eggs in to double stack and put a thermometer on the first stack and second and the temp reads the same. Do you suppose it'll be okay to double stack just...

    breeding meat birds, what to use..?

    Hi- Was wondering what folks who breed their own meat birds use for birds. I'm looking for a hearty meat bird that can be bred, hatched and raised in my backyard. Thanks for your insight.
