    Serama Hatch-A-Long!!

    Both parents of this one's parents STRONGLY DISLIKE me. I think a big reason why it's so friendly not only bc of the incubator but also because It was the only chick, it didn't have an option to identify or imprint with anything else but me. In the long run it might cause problems but since mine...

    The American Cemani Breeders Club...open forum

    Thank you for your reply. One is mixed not sure with what. I have to re-home almost all of them. I don't mind having spots here and there, I'm not trying to breed and sell them. It's a beautiful breed to add to my existing small flock. Trying to find new homes for the rest locally is going to...

    I highly doubt I will be breeding these for any purposes. I'm not comfortable with breeding anything with a murky gene pool, I still don't know much about their genetics but I know a lot of people heavily cull. I just want a couple to add some interesting colors, maybe a pair if I felt like...

    Serama Hatch-A-Long!!

    AWWW!!! How adorable!!! No second chick yet I may have guessed wrong, still not sure it was laid three days before without proper storage. I'm thrilled with the little one I did get though, it's the sweetest! My other hen started laying on the 15th, she up to two so far! Nervous about the new...

    I don't know of a better place to ask. I won some cemani chicks from an online auction. While waiting for the chicks to ship I did some reading on the breed and short american history and got extremely nervous about the sellers credibility. There's a lot of back and forth about how much...

    Serama Hatch-A-Long!!

    The incubator hatched out one so far, just one left. The other is supposed to hatch tonight or tomorrow. This egg that's due was out in a storm for three days before I found it. curiosity got the best of me, I tossed it in the incubator. Developing nicely. There was also a black out . I'm...

    Serama Hatch-A-Long!!

    UPDATE - One of the eggs quit probably day 18 and one piped internally went onto externally pip only to buckle under the weight of my broody. Not sure if this is a common occurrence using a big broody but I will NOT be putting any smaller eggs under her again. It almost seemed as if it zipped...

    Serama Hatch-A-Long!!

    Beautiful babies!!! I'm nervous the two under my broody won't make it. They were supposed to start piping over the weekend but I think the colder weather is dragging it out. Checked on her last night and took a peep at the two eggs one was chirping and the other hadn't made it to the air pocket...

    Serama Hatch-A-Long!!

    I'm in CA. It started to even out last night only went back and forth between 99 - 100 and 45-55% humidity. I'm leaving my broody with two eggs that should hatch out by this weekend, she needs a break asap. I put the youngest two in the incubator. I candled all four eggs, all have movement. Now...

    Serama Hatch-A-Long!!

    My incubator came in the mail yesterday, I can't for the life of me fine tune it! I got the hovabator 1602N it's bouncing all over the place humidity is anywhere between 40-65% fiddling with the temp it's been 89-103 closest I've gotten is 100.5. It wont stay at a constant though. Another issue...

    Serama Hatch-A-Long!!

    I thought about it few times. I don't want to bother her too much, I only bug her when I have too. She's a pain to get under. I don't mind waiting a week to find out. When I start using the incubator I probably will all the time.

    Serama Hatch-A-Long!!

    Quote: I have been reading up on gen1588, I think I might try that first and see how well it works for me. I want to go for a turner, frees up some of my days. They were already together when I got them, although I do plan on keeping just pairs mostly for color/texture experiments. Mine are...

    Serama Hatch-A-Long!!

    Thanks for the replies, I'm going to collect eggs for two weeks or so and try to store them. I'll probably only get 3 or 4. Our weather here in CA is a bit unpredicable, the temp of our house changes quite a bit during the day but I'll see what I can do. I didn't think to try to encourage her to...

    Buff Orpington hen brooding

    Peep is broody all the time never with fertile eggs, so I gave her some fosters. Going on two weeks, looks like she might get her babies after all.

    Show off your Seramas (mixed or pure)

    I finally found my two pairs and drove hours to get them. Not one bit of disappointment. This is my pullet Chicka up to her normal shenanigans. (she's on BYC 's home page)
