    Water candling

    Black Copper Marans eggs are too dark to use a light. All but the 5 hatched and are doing great. The eggs that didn't hatch never began developing, probably not fertilized. All eggs were inspected with a light and were carefully placed in 100 degree water for less than 5 seconds, dried and...

    What breed or mix do you think these are?

    I'm buying these 2 roos in few days, not sure what they are. The white one and the black one facing each other. They are about 7 months old and very timid per owner. Just curious as to the adult mannerisms.

    What caused this egg

    Thank you for you input. I hadn't thought of the food coloring trick, she will be colored up soon. Her comb had some frost bite when I got her, bones seemed spread apart normal when I inspected her for injury and such. She will have a home either way I just want her to be healthy and was afraid...

    What caused this egg

    Inside is perfect double yokes, very thin irregular shell with some thicker in spots. I suspect a rescue chicken laid the egg, she was very malnourished. I've had her almost a month. I offer oyster shells, baked egg shells and flock feed. Treats of mixed scratch and a few BSF larvae. They have a...

    What caused this egg

    I get double yokes occasionally but this is different, cracked all over. Has anyone had this happen before and what might cause it? It looks chalky and has an irregular shell also.

    Rescue hen

    We got this hen a few days ago as a rescue. She had been living outside an empty office building for a while according to a neighbor. She already had some minor frostbite on her comb and was without food, water or shelter. Any idea what she may be, she has dark legs and has had feathers on them...
