    5 day old chicks

    Thanks very much for that info. They don't have it, I was purely wondering if i needed to as a precaution. They seem very happy and healthy. I can get some fine grit for them if necessary. I just offered them some cooked egg which I think they will enjoy once they realise its food.

    5 day old chicks

    Hi, two questions. 1. Do I need to treat for coccidiosis and when? 2. What other than chick crumb can I feed them?

    Eggs didn't get turned!

    Hi, I candled one of my eggs the other day and about 24-36 hrs after I noticed the turning rod wasn't in the slot. I judt totally messed up and forgot to check when replacing the lid. Will they be ok?

    Incubation

    What would you think of adjusting the temperature after three days.? It sounds like I should drop it a little more!

    Incubation

    Using an incubator for first time. I don't know what I'm supposed to do with the little vent hole on top. It has a sliding cover, any help please? Also it was factory set at 38c but someone told me 37.4, now I've set it at 37.8 to be able between, will that be ok?
