    NR 360 Humidity

    I have having a horrendous time with my new NR 360 and humidity. For context, I'm in south Texas with 80% humidity, however this incubator is inside. I am struggling to maintain a constant steady humidity. Every time I refill even a tiny bit, it swings up to 60% and then a few hours later...

    Egg Eating

    See I'd assume that, but they have free access to oyster shell at all times, and no one is keeping her from it that I can see.

    Egg Eating

    I have a hen eating eggs. I caught her, egg handed, the other day, after noticing wet spots in the nesting boxes, and one or two broken eggs, over a few days. I immediately removed her, and she's in isolation so no one else picks up the habit, but is there anything I can do to stop her, or is...

    Flock Management Software

    Is there any good flock management software out there? I have some for my rabbits, and was wondering if there are any for chickens as well.

    Help? Hen with Rooster Plumage?

    The 2 roos I have do just fine together, and have for awhile now. I think it's because my silkie is an absolute pushover. If I had to pick just one though, it's my big red roo, Stowaway. I'd fight people over that bird. He's so, so good to his ladies, and polite with me.

    Help? Hen with Rooster Plumage?

    Thank you! Now I've gotta figure out what to do with him. 13 hens isn't enough for 3 roosters.

    Help? Hen with Rooster Plumage?

    Hey all, so I have a small mystery on my hands. I purchased a rainbow egg assortment from Ideal Poultry. I got what I assume is a cuckoo maran. However, at 15 weeks, despite her coloring, she's looking suspiciously roostery to me. Her comb and wattles are turning red and large. She has...

    I'm glad you like his collar. We do a lot of formal dinners for my husbands job, and as my service dog, Dovah has to go. So he needed something snazzy to wear.

    He's average sized for the breed. He's 18 months old and about 55 lbs. He will probably fill out to be a few pounds heavier. He can be an absolute crackhead. But he has a day job, and works 8-10 hours a day as my medical alert dog. So he's not as bad as he could be. Overall, I really enjoy...

    Accidentally Bought the Wrong Feed

    I don't know, it's a new to me brand. I had to swap feed stores. I used to get purina, but this brand is MG? It seems to be a local texas brand. 20% protein.

    Accidentally Bought the Wrong Feed

    Hey, so I had a mixup at the feed store. I asked for Grower, I got starter, didn't realize until I got home. I have 10 girls who are 15 weeks old, and 4 girls who are a year old, and two roosters. I leave oyster shell out for all to have freely. Can I feed this bag, or do I need to return it?

    ID Stowaway the Roo, Please?

    This is Stowaway. I'm trying to get breed, and age on him. My best guess is a brown leghorn, and I'm assuming he's on the younger side based on the smaller spurs?
