    Thank you so much. I just checked again, when i Iifted the hen 's chest the chick crawled way back up under her without its shell. I looked at the shell and it was pretty dry very little moisture. I am happy I did it. Now I can sleep. Thank you again.

I don't see any yoke but the white isike paper so I lifted it off it head it was peeping very loudly and mom was not happy most of it is out I did not pull the bottom off for fear it would hurt it. I would say it's 3/4 of the way born it...

    I don't know if this right thing to do butthe whit is turning yellow so I picked off the remainder of the shell around the middle only. To loosen the grip. The most her is very upset with me.

    Will it hurt it, if I handle it to pick the shell around the rest of the middle? it isn't exactly at the top more towards the middle like when you crack an egg in half. I have seen the others and the opening was more towards the top than this one is. The opening is more than half way but not...

    I cant get a pic because I have to use one hand to keep her from biting me. I looked and if you can imagine this, the egg is sort of splitting around the middle like when you break an egg to eat, the membrane is still white and the chick moved and peeped when I touched the egg to look. The...

    HELP! PLEASE! my beautiful gander is sick!

    Hi Miss Lydia, thanks so much for your well wishes. Regarding the food we throw out, we don't usually have mold. However when it is pulverized the geese won't eat it they will only eat the pellets. Sometimes I give the pulverized to the chickens they like it no matter what. However, I am sure...
