Hello all,
All my flock you has this issue, this one has the worst symptoms, their comb is full of dark patches, like wounds.
Their eyes also have developed swelling.
Please let me know what to do. Can this be due to extreme heat? We had a severe heat wave the last couple of weeks in Karachi...
Thanks for your reply, I'm glad you like the quality of these birds, feedback coming from someone experienced like you clears my mind of any doubts. Now I can be more confident when dealing with the seller.
I'll also post in the BA thread, thanks for sharing that.
Basically I'm asking because...
So how did it go? I'm curious because I'm making an incubator to hatch quail eggs. I'll be hatching around 500 eggs. Do let me know how it went, what was the hatch rate and chick survival rate. Thanks.
Wanted egg layers so got around 35 Black Austrolorp chicks in Dec, they are supposed to be good egg layers, 250+ a year, hoping for eggs to start in April - May.
Two+ months old now (luckily most of them are hens):
I thought so too until recently I saw on a Facebook poultry forum, a guy brought 12 eggs from Chicago to Pakistan got them x-rayed and all and hatched 8 out of 12. So that has given me the courage to order a few dozen for my self.
Hi guys,
Firstly I would like to thank you all as a community, I have learned so much from you guys here and you guys are always so helpful in every situation.
So around 2 months ago I bought around 50 australorp chicks, shipped to me by air, around 15 died and 35 survived. Now they're 2...
Is it a good idea to give a week old chicks these multi vitamins? I just got 3 dozen austrolorps chicks.
I've attached the images of the multi vitamin label.
