    Hatchery Polish

    Has anyone else had problems raising hatchery silver laced polish? I've raised three batches from three hatcheries, (Meyer, Hoover's, Ideal) all mixed colors (WCB, silver, gold, and buff) and each time lost most of the silvers. The latest batch I lost every single silver, and all the other...

    I have to talk POLISH!

    INCUBATING w/FRIENDS! w/Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs No problem!

    Thanks! I had read that before but I reread it. The chicks membrane was rather tan looking so I slowly assisted. Left and came back and he's out!! Also transferred the others to the brooder.

    Thanks for all the advice everyone!! Two chicks have hatched. The original pip has not. It's been 36 plus hours. When do I help? Also those two are banging around. When do you move them to the brooder?

    Polish Thread!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    This is my "guaranteed" pullet! I've only had hens before, but he's been really nice so far, so I guess i will keep him around. Can anyone critique him for me? He's supposed to be a buff laced?

    I have to talk POLISH!

    These chicks came from an "assorted polish" bin at the local feed store. Does anybody know what colors they will turn out? I know they buy their chicks from Ideal. Thanks!
