    never used an incubator

    I've always let my brood hens hatch. A friend has given me a Dickey's incubator along with 40 geese and 5 ducks. I want to use the incubator for some of the geese eggs and chicken eggs. I haven't looked in the 'bator to see if everything is in there but sure it is. How can I get instructions on...

    I live in Bellville and saw a news story about Blue Star Ranch. I've never visited the place but looks very interesting. I don't advertise but sell by word of mouth. Mostly to dh's co-workers, church members, and the people at the water company. I have a hen sitting on about 13 eggs under a...

Our temperature down here in south Texas has been warm many days. We keep the feed in a closed container and throw...

    I'm glad to be here

    I came here looking for an answer as to why two of my ducks and one goose has been losing their balance. The two ducks died but the goose just started. Had another duck that developed it but recovered on her own. I have had chickens for about 12 yrs and just got 40 geese and 7 ducks last June...
