    Neighbor concerned about bird flu

    I don't get why she's nervous about bird flu when she never spends any time outside and doesn't have any birds?

    How many chicks will you hatch in 2026?

    My first hatch of the year will be next week (quails). From the very first hatch I play guessing game with my family. Anyone else doing it? The rules are simple. I say how many eggs I have in the incubator and they guess how many chicks will hatch. The one who guesses right or gets the closest...

    Cheer on my eggs please!

    It's always great to see new chicks, no matter if you've seen them once or a hundred times. I will have my quail chicks next week so probably will photo bomb someone's thread as well

    New to turkeys, any advice is appreciated.

    Thanks for taking time to share the information. Much appreciated. I also have one more question. I have experience with mean (chicken) roosters. Turkeys are bigger and potentially more dangerous than roosters. What are the early warning signs that I should closely pay attention to? When a...

    New to turkeys, any advice is appreciated.

    Great thread. I also want to start with turkeys this year and use this place for some questions. I want to hatch some eggs and buy a few BB poults as well to get full experience. Are there any differences in raising heritage and BBs if yes what should I take into consideration? My biggest...

    Show off Butchered Heritage Type Chickens.

    This was my favourite boy. He was half Orloff, I wanted to keep him for future breeding. Unfortunately he decided to become a meanie and I had no other choice but to put him into the freezer. He weighted 2.8 Kg after processing.

    Undecided- Anyone ever feel the same?

    As a quail keeper I can say that they are very cute but also require as much care as chickens. So there's not much difference in the big picture. You might feel a bit more excitement with them at the beginning as you do with every new beginning, but eventually it will wear out too. And when you...

    Fingers crossed for the remaining eggs! You can try the next time hand turning yourself and compare the results.

    What dose every one think this quail pster?

    There is so many AI, some better, some worse. I just let Raphael AI to generate a picture of a quail. Tbh I've never encountered a quail like in my picture. If any professional is able to identify it, id be more than interested

    Viable?

    Squishy is never a good sign. If it seems to have a mind of it's own and moving whenever it wants that's a good sign. I'm afraid it's a toss away.

    Dropped egg with developing embryo--help!

    It's still in the early days of development. I'd put it back and see how it goes.

    Viable?

    I can not see veins. I'm sorry to say but this one doesn't look good. When you turn it can you see movement?(I mean movement from inside not because you move it)

    Official BYC Poll: What Capacity Incubator Fits You Best?

    I bought a cheapy a few years back. I removed the turners and my best fit has been 16 chicken eggs although even then it was clearly over crowded. I like my little incubator as it reminds me I also have limited room for poultry and I can't incubate as many as I would like. I purposely won't buy...
