    Is this too many birds in a cage?

    Looking to rehome a Jenday and Green-cheek Conure

    I have recently lost a very good job and had to move and am struggling financially. I have two beautiful birds I am looking to re-home. A Jenday Conure and a Green-cheek Conure. They are both loving birds and easily handled. The Jenday was hatched January 7, 2006 and purchased from a Petland...

    Announcing the Relaunch of the “Other Poultry” Breeds Database!

    Was going to work on some more profiles but as my original ones submitted two months ago haven't been approved I think I'll wait.

    Not my first time, but chewing nails already...

    Well I'll be updating this thread like a live journal for the next 28-ish days with the conditions of the incubator for any that might be following this endeavor. Would still appreciate any input on the questions posted earlier...

    Suggestions for Management of Damaged and Mal-positioned Egg Air Cells

    Pete I just love how informative your threads on incubation are. I am incubating some shipped turkey eggs for a friend and candled the eggs before placing them in the incubator. Out of twelve eggs, two have detached air cells. I see where you recommend keeping the eggs upright at a 45 degree...

    Not my first time, but chewing nails already...

    Thinking I mis-read it in the dark. It is at 100.4 again. So we seem to be holding steady which is good. Thinking about filling up the water reservoirs and marking/setting the eggs a little later. Does anyone have any thoughts on putting cling wrap on the bottom tray under the hardware...

    Regular thermometers are holding nearly steady and the digital is now reading 100.9. So confused...

    Just checked all three thermometers. This morning the two bulb thermometers (about an inch off the wire) read 104-ish. There is about a half degree difference between the two while the Brinsea (sitting on the wire or just nearly) read 98 or so. Now the two read 108-ish while the digital reads...

    I still haven't had confirmation on the approval of my pages either. Sorry to be a pest.

    Okay. I haven't hatched any babies since like '04. So practically 7 years. I have successfully hatched chickens (large fowl and bantam), ducks, geese, turkeys, guineas, quail, and pheasants in my incubators. Usually I used a Sportsman with an automatic turner and moved them to a hatcher on...

    Looks like five Cuckoo Marans pullets and one Silver-laced Wyandotte cockerel.

    My hatchery quality Rouens layed very well and were quite large enough to eat. And they never flew.

    Need help recue 3 to 4 weeks thats all I know

    1st chick is a black silkie. In the US we don't really have bantam or large fowl silkies. They are somewhere in between. 2nd chick I'm not sure on. Was thinking probably an Australorp but with little feather stubs you might have lucked out and gotten a Black, Birchin, or Black Copper Marans...
