    Hi, so one of my 6 girls blead out badly 2 days ago. Although it could be other things my guess is coccidiosis. I separated her and drenched her twice a day with corrid and the usual corid in her drinking water. Obviously I’m treating them all now in their drinking water. No other signs of blood...

    Ideas for no waste chick feeders

    As we all know chicks probably waste almost half the feed you give to them. Does anyone have any no waste chick feeder ideas? So tired of throwing half my feed in the garbage. Thanks

    I have one that I used a couple of years ago. Was my first incubator. I since upgraded to Brinsea. It did the trick and its only 100$. You will have to play with the temperature control cause the display isnt correct. You'll just need a thermometer to colaberate. Im actually going to fire it up...

    Resting Shipped Eggs?

    Did a test myself a month or so ago. I had 8 shipped eggs with all detached air cells. I didn’t turn them for the first 3 days standing on end of course. Started turning near end of day 3. End of day 18 (lockdown) I stood them up in a cut down egg carton. Surprisingly 5 chicks hatched before the...

    Resting Shipped Eggs?

    If the air cells are still attached you can start turning immediately. The idea of not turning for 2 or 3 days is hopes in reattaching air cells.

    Aracauna Eggs with detached air cells

    So I’m looking for some opinion and past experience with hatching detached air cells. I have 8 shipped Aracauna eggs with detached air cells. I have life in 8 eggs and into Day 13. My question is do I lock them down standing on end or do I lay them down as usual? What would be the best chance of...
