    Saddled Air sacs at Lockdown

    I recently had severely saddled air sacs in my shipped eggs. I honestly didn't think they'd even hatch. I put them on their side during lockdown with the rest of the eggs and all of them hatched!!

    The "Ask Anything" to Nicalandia Thread

    I'm getting ready to put some of my fertile chicken eggs in the incubator. My rooster is a lavender Americana/ black copper Marans cross. I'm assuming this makes him an Easter Egger. The eggs I'm putting in there are from the following hens: Rhode Island Red Black copper marans Blue...

    Possible double yolker?

    It was only in the fridge for a few days before I put it under my broody. Today is day 9 of being under her ☺️

    Possible double yolker?

    It looks like one very large dark area in the middle of the two air cells. I should note, I did take this egg out of the refrigerator so wondering if that has something to do with it?

    Possible double yolker?

    This is day 9 of incubation under my broody hen. I'm thinking I might have a double yolker because it looks like there are 2 air cells and this egg is pretty large compared to the others. Any ideas?

    can fertilized eggs in a refrigerator hatch?

    I just put some refrigerated eggs under my broody hen... So we'll see what happens! I've read that you're supposed to warm them to room temperature before you put them in the incubator or under a broody. Does anyone have experience with going straight to the incubator or hen without warming to...

    Can we put a one day old chick under a broody hen who has week old chicks?

    I tried to put additional chicks under one of my hens about three days after I placed the initial chicks under her and she did not accept them. She pecked them out of her lay box and I had to put them in my brooder. Just my experience.

    Putting day old chicks under broody hen

    Hi all, I have a blue laced red wyandotte that has been broody for over a month. I can't break her. I'm going to buy a couple chicks for her to stick under her tonight. Does anyone have any experience with the Wyandotte breed adopting chicks? I did this a while ago with a buff orpington hen and...

    Americana: hen or roo?

    Hi all, I feather sexed my lavender Americana as a pullet. Until recently I thought "she" was for sure a pullet. She's now 10 weeks old and the comb is looking pretty red to me. Thoughts anyone? Attached are some pics. Thanks ☺️
