I have two very beautiful bantam calico cochin hens that I hatched out of lucky pickin's eggs.
They are going to waste in my coop and I am trying to thin down.
I will sell for $20 or $30 for both.
Please contact me through my email [email protected].
I do travel to detla, olathe, and...
I have two bantam cochin pairs for sale. One pair is a mottled black pair--both birds are very beautiful, appear to me to be show quality.
The other pair is a buff columbian. The color on these are not as good and these are more pet quality. I will discount the price on these.
I also have...
I have three blue show girl chicks, approximately one month old that need a new home.
They all have a bow tie neck.
I cannot ship.
Please email or pm me.
Thanks!
I have two silkie chicks that are three days old. I just noticed that they are having trouble walking and there toes are curled under.
I did not notice any thing wrong with them when they hatched. I do have 16 chicks so it is possible that I overlooked them, but it seems to be something that...
I have 8 bantam cochin chicks, two weeks old, from luckypickens eggs (see her listing at:
https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/623488/bin-12-assorted-purebred-sq-cochin-bantam-hatching-eggs-from-14-varieties-npip ),
and could quite possibly be show quality. They are all extremely healthy and...
Yay!! Congratulations!
There is usually nothing wrong with them when they hatch slow. I had one duck I had to help out because it was too large for the egg!
Way too large. So it was actually super healthy, just couldn't negotiate in the egg to hatch. Geese are usually a little slower, and the...
Last night I had one egg with a pip. . .today when I got home this afternoon I had two chicks hatch within 30min of when I walked in the door! Then within another two hours I had three more.
I have one more that is working on enlarging its pip and if it is like the others have been, it could be...
Goslings can take *forever* to hatch if you are used to chicken eggs. I just hatched out ducks and one took two days from pip to hatch, the other one only 24 hrs. Geese can easily take two days. . .the important thing is to make sure it is progressing. If it isn't progressing, at least...
I have three gorgeous silkies, two hens and a rooster that need a new home.
The rooster and one hen are splash, and one hen is black.
They are all from the same breeder and absolutely gorgeous, with large top knots and silk everywhere.
They are about a year old and the hens just started laying...
Ok, I have brooded ducklings before, and even geese, and for some reason I have no memory of them being *this* messy.
Maybe it is just amnesia! Or maybe I did something brilliant before that helped keep things a little neater?
I already I have their waterer up on a block and that has not slowed...
My first thought when I saw the heading: how many chicks are enough?
There is no such number!
You will never have enough!
actually, I think the appropriate math term might be
n=enough chicks where n=((((((n+1)+1)+1)+1)+1)+1). . .
Just fair warning.
Edited to say: How can you possibly...
I have never helped a chick/duckling hatch before, but several of my last clutch of chicks (which were in the incubator at the same time as my duck eggs) died in the shell, and one died after already starting to zip. This little one had pipped yesterday and then made no progress, other than to...
It is day 21 for me and I just started hearing peeping this morning.
Now I have one pip and one starting to zip, and one egg rocking.
I only have 4 total, so that is not to bad!
This has been the slowest hatch ever, though, like watching paint dry!
It seems like it happened quicker last time I...
How do I treat for coccida? I am already feeding medicated food and he was getting this at the feed store.
What else should I be doing?
Is it contageous to other chicks?
I have some just starting to hatch today.
Thanks!
