    My first hatchlings

    Thank you. With Tweety I do not, but Miracle does. I had brought momma hen inside due to having an aggressive younger roo in the flock. The day that Miracle was hatching I had taken momma outside to potty before it arrived. While putting herback in with the eggs, she jumped out to attack my...

    Cracked Eggs

    My broody hen has cracked one of the eggs she is sitting on. She has not broken the membrane yet. It is around day 19 of incubation. What should I do? She has dumped her water and gotten the wood shaving wet.

    Small Chick Wings

    I am new to raising chicks. I have 12 chicks that are about 2 weeks old. I noticed that one of my Buff Orpingtons wings are extremely small. The other 3 Buffs that I have have normal sized wings. Has anyone ever heard of this? It acts normal.
