    this hatching thing just isnt as easy as it looks

    I might get trashed but you should try Dry Incubating. The first 18 days I dont add any water at all, But I am in east texas where the RH is fairly high. The first 18 days run at 25-35% humidity.

    Not a good thing for me to go and buy chickens at a breeder!!

    It happens to the best of us. I went to a ranch here in east texas to pick up a rir roo that was free and it ended up costing me $60 bucks because I saw some Jersey Giant hens that I couldnt resist. Its cheaper to breed your own than going somewhere where there are a bunch of chickens.

    another sex link question.

    I have some sex links that have a rust color feathers coming down from their head to their back. I have some others that are about 3-4 weeks old that are starting to barre like their barred rock momma's, is this normal? All the black sex links that I have seen are almost pure black.

    Is there any truth to this humidty?

    I dont believe it at all. Today I hatched a mix of 17 RIR and Black sex links. Out of the 10 sex links 8 are roosters. I dry incubate and the humidity runs between 25-40 depending on the outside rh.

    Opinions.....

    A game hen is the best I have seen. They will sit forever and protect the babies like no other hen will.
