    Thank you. I was wondering if it was special for poultry but it seems its the same as what people would use.

    How I got my hen to go broody

    Hatching Turkey Eggs.. help I have no idea!

    Just wondering how your turkeys turned out. I just put 18 eggs in my own incubator and am trying to learn all I can.

    insight needed

    I just hatched a batch and had 18 chicks alive. 19 fully developed but not hatched. 2 of the 19 started but didn't finish. 3 rotten. Any suggestions as to what I may have done wrong or should do differently.
