    GA- free silkies

    My grandparents live over then. I am about 20-30 minutes away. We don't have a coop yet, but when I do get one I would be happy to get some.

    Day 21...No hatches yet

    Oh, and the two that had yolk swirling in them, they were seeping. A little blotch of yellow was caked up on the side of the egg, it was pretty small so I never really noticed it.

    Day 21...No hatches yet

    I just candled. Three of the eggs have a big, dark mass in them, two of them actually look like there are feet in them!! 2 of the others are just swirling yolk.

    Day 21...No hatches yet

    yeah I have heard of them hatching on day 24, I have just lost hope. I don't see what happened though. Besides the slight temperature falls and rises in the first 4 or so days, everrthing has been steady and correct. They must have been duds. I will post pics of the candling.

    Day 21...No hatches yet

    Nope. I am thinking that if they don't hatch by the end of tomorrow I might open them to see if they even developed. Tomorrow will be day 23

    Day 21...No hatches yet

    I am worried now. I was away from my house over the weekend at a band festival, and I came home hoping for some little chicks, but sadly, there was none. I hope they hatch tomorrow

    Tomorrow is Day 15 for Silkie babies!

    I am thinking that I should go ahead and start thinking about a brooder and what to make it out of. I am probably going to use a cardboard box. Is this a good shelter for them? We have cats and I am going to keep them in my room, but I want them to be safe from predatorrs. Any Sugestions?

    Should we create a BYC "EMT" crew?

    I think it is a good idea, especially someone who knows alot about the health of chickens. I am not sayinbg that some of us don't know about chicken health and emergencys, but I think there should be an EMT crew.

    Nest Boxes: is this a good one??

    I saw where they had that NestBox, and I think I will just build my own. My dad waants to buy them because we don't have a way to cut the wood and putting it together. I was looking online for some that would be big enough for Barred Rocks, because they say they need bigger nests because of...
