@ the 50$ incubator Half your luck and enjoy them!! The cheapest I can find around here seems to be 200$ and that is way out of reach for the moment. I just can't wait to get some babies I am considering getting a silkie or two to use as minimum's in the meantime.

I don't have one but I'd desperately like one as soon as I can find either a) Cheep one on ebay or online somewhere that will ship to Australia or b) I can find a reasonable "local" seller.

Fascinating... Does this often work or is this case a one off? I can't really afford a incubator at the moment and have been considering getting a couple of silky hens as one I had years ago was a baby hatching machine. But I thought I would have to wait until a hen came broody, I didn't think...

Do you think there might be any chance of using colour to sex any chicken that may happen? or any other tips or myths I can try, alas roos will be dinners and gifts to friends because I'm pushing local by laws just by having my 1 noisy young man. I'm considering replacing the last lot of lost...

Thanks for the comments, he came from a poultry enthusiast hobby farm half a days drive from here. From what I've been able to read production reds are a lighter more mottled colour. These pics aren't much good cause of the shading but he is a deep mahogany colour all over cept for his green...

I'm in Australia Tala think it might be too far to walk... how are you with swimming? Meanwhile, it's so hot outside now that I fear I've done all I am going to do with it today. I just hope he doesn't think I need a bit more. Maybe I should ask him to bring me some very very very small pots...

We recently moved (5mths ago) out onto a property and I decided a vege garden and some potted plants would be in order. But the rising cost of everything and the fact that husband now moves large quantities of high grade soil soon had me asking him to bring a little bit home from work. 4mths...

Hi everyone can't recall if I've done this already or not as I was interrupted during uploads so I will do it again Hubby and I at an outback show we attended and he wouldn't take his cap off for the photo's

Hi I obtained Harry a couple of months ago as a RIR, to my limited knowledge he looks right but then other days he just doesn't look right but maybe that's just me having a bad day. 6mths old now If he is RIR and he is bred with my Australorps and Isa Browns are the possibilities of his...

Awesome well hopefully I will be able to join more of these swaps, I've seen some come and go but thought my location would rule me out Must remember to keep my eyes open for new threads opening. AND now my mum is getting all excited about the prospects of joining the site too so she can...

Hi I'm in Australia we don't actually celebrate Thanksgiving day or fall here since it's currently spring. But if possible I'd love to receive a (thanksgiving towel) and send an Australian souvenir type teatowel or similar to someone. Will watch the thread to see if there's anyway I can join...

I relise it might not be the most appropriate way to source eggs, but would it be possible to do so or would there be quarantine regulations to follow? Where could I find out anyone have any interesting websites?

Ok so 100 = 37.7 or thereabouts.... So here are my noob questions? 1. Does an incubator need a light in it or is the light strictly for heating purposes. Example let's say we had a heated box like a car food cooler/warmer thingy, no light but it holds a steady temp. Would that work or do I...
