    HELP!!

    I'm on day 19 of incubating a couple eggs. Last night I took the turner out and laid the eggs on the side.I guess I didn't notice the top of the incubator did not close all the way down and this morning when I checked on it the temp had dropped to 96.5 . It's was over night and we are 2 days...

    What kind of roo is this??

    I've been saying it was a welsummer for the past year but have never been sure...he's an older boy, was given to me. But I just started incubating eggs so I was wondering. Thank you!!!

    Up sizing our number of chickens

    8 To 50 is a big leap. But general rule of thumb is 10-12 hens per roo. You could probably get away with up to 15 per. Though.

    Dominickers and RIR's

    Thank you so much! I am definitely and very "patiently" excited about getting eggs from these girls... I watched my grandfather raise chickens and now I'm doing it on my own wanting to teach my daughter!

    Dominickers and RIR's

    I have 8 rirs and 3 doms, they are all about 18 weeks. Are there any certain signs of when they are getting close to laying? They are all free ranging also but have a coop with laying boxes in that they go into every night...

    mixing baby chicks at different ages

    Welcome to BYC!! You shouldn't have any problems at all since they are that young! I mixed 10 two week old RIR's with 5 three week old Doms they turned out just fine, best of friends now!

    new rooster

    I have 10 week old hens and just had someone give me a full grown rooster. Can I put him in the coop with the little ones or will he kill them?
