he's legs looked stiff and curled when he tried to walk but they weren't it just looked like it at the time. But i am still very impressed that he wasn't weak at all

oh i wouldn't have left him there...but when i helped him i had to move quick before my next period so i saw him for a split second so that's why it looked like he had funky legs but nope he is a healthy baby, he was very lively when he hatched and still is lol. I'm just surprised he wasn't week...

I helped the chick which looks to have some stiff legs :/ i kinda figured it would....I'm going to bring it home today and will probably have to cull the chick :( ...at least i got 5 other chicks :)

okay i will when i get back to that classroom thank you very much!!!:D

So this year my school is hatching eggs (which i am in charge of)....i brought 9 eggs to put in and 8 were fertile. Today is day 22.... 5 hatched days 20-21. There is one that has zipped nearly half way around but hasn't done anything for nearly 24 hours.....so my question is, is it time to...

our neighbor still has it...I don’t know what he’s gonna do with it and I don’t know if it’s injured because I have not seen it myself...and thank y’all for all the replies😊

Is it a still air or forced air incubator? And what day are they on? They should be fine if they’re fluctuating between 98-100...they may hatch a bit late from cooler temps but probably nothing major..I’d put a towel over your incubator( I do this at lock down to keep my humidity steady)

our neighbors found this duck at work and brought it to there house and asked if we wanted it because we have ducks (domestic) and I wasn’t sure because I didn’t want to bring any diseases to our flock...but If is domestic would I be able to add it to my flock?

OK so I’m pretty sure they’re both boys as you said but them were mating earlier

I think they’re both boys but I’m not for sure, duke is the more aggressive one so I think it’s a male. And daisy is a bit more shy, but they both have about the same size nob. We got them in April

Ok thank you, and she is about a year old

This morning my sister went oub to the chicken and found our little red hen pumpkin laying down drooling, has white stuff coming out her vent, and has a purple comb. I tried researching and couldn’t find anything. She about a year old no idea what breed but I feel bad for the poor thing....i...

it may very well be the heat, i have 25 hens (4 of which that are broody and need to stop) and i have only been getting 15 eggs per day.

They should be fine! They might hatch a day late or something but nothing too bad. Good luck!!

Oh no!! That’s so sad! I wouldn’t blame ya if u let ur dog at it lol!
