    First three days of no turning in new incubator - should I be worried?

    How did your chicks turn out? My eggs are on day 15 and I just found out that weren't being turned for 36 hours. Should I be worried?

    Another year full of cockerels....

    Each time the local fox wondered by he grabbed a hen. The 3 roos didn't save my girls or the guineas that are suppose to be the protector. Do I have wimpy roos?

    I wish you were closer I would give you 2 roos. They are not mean and very handsome. I would love eggs in the spring. I hatch them in my classroom and then bring them home to live. 2 years ago I hatched 6 eggs and they were all hens.

    Duck Identification

    I recued 2 ducks from a women's bath tub. She said she had them for 9 weeks and wasn't allowed ducks in her housing area. I have a pond and at that time two 4 year old pekin ducks. Since then I have raised these 3 additional pekin ducks. My question is can anyone identify these 2 ducks. I...
