    Breeding/pedigree tracker ???

    Is there an app or web based program to track breedings? I want to have something like kin tracks but do not have a regular computer to download it.

    Putting on a wing band

    I have done this once before but cannot seem to figure out if the band encloses the tendon or if the tendon is on the "outside" of the tendon.

    Weekly hatchery deals

    Anyone have any info on hatcheries that are currently running good weekly specials? If you are not on ideal poultry's weekly email list I would recommend signing up for that. I was not sure if other hatcheries had any deals going on this time of year that people would like to share. Thanks

    Ideal Hatchery straight run chicks?

    I know that is how is supposed to be but was wanting to see if anyone had any experience with ideal and gotten a batch of 75%-90% males? Or if they truly pick chicks prior to being sexed.

    Little giant incubator modification help

    I have a little giant incubator that my dad wired a thermostat like the one pictured. We were trying to get it to stay a more constant temp. Has anyone had any experience with these thermostats. For me the temp swings to much from 97.5 - 102. It has a fan kit on it also. Anyone have any advice...

    how long can you leave eggs out unrefrigerated?

    Another thing to consider is that if the eggs are still good enough to incubate after max of about 2 weeks they can safely be eaten. If they can be hatched there is no harmful Bactria in them. I normally leave them out for up to 3 weeks after rinsing an occasional dirty egg. But I only give...

    GRAPHIC PICS of my day learning to caponize

    Are all of the capon kits about the same quality or are there some better than others. I have been wanting to try this for a while just haven't had any extra Roos to do this to. Going to try to add a couple roo chicks to my next hatchery order. Also if they are all the same who has the best deal?

    Who has the best Cornish X chicks?

    I was not aware that was possible. I figured each hatchery had their own strain that they developed from their own on hand stock. I will have to look into finding out who has what strain. Will defamatory be worth the time to call or email the major hatcheries and get a list going.
