    Foreign made yellow incubators

    Question I have two 96 egg yellow plastic incubators-one made in China. The other maybe India. I am confused about the wires despite having watched YouTube set ups. There are three wires hanging from the lid. Two obviously run the turners. There is one black wire which does not have a female...

    Nest box from kitty litter container

    Continuing the "kitty thread" I seem to have collected a multitude of small and medium cat carriers and covered litter boxes. You don't even need to use the bottom of the litter box. They seem to like them fine.

    do hens know when 21 days is up if nothing hatches?

    Have a broody that ended up setting on a huge pile of eggs without me realizing it. Do hens know when it is futile to set any longer if nothing hatches? Will they eventually give up?

    fractured femur with new splint

    Violet our three year old goose got stepped on by one of our horses. Fractured her "drumstick"! Here she is with her new splint. Don't even ask what it cost. Slightly more than it cost to have my pet rat Pebbles operated on . Not practical for everyone but I am lucky enough to be able to. I am a...

    Broody Hen Thread!

    Did not expect these till the 14th. Three moms-a veritable commune! 75 percent naked neck, some feather legs, plain legs-too iffy checks doing great after a day under heat lamp.

    New to incubating please help

    I think I tried at least twice before anything hatched. My results came when I #1-read the Little Giant tips and got a hydrometer. Third time was a charm. this is my fourth.

    New to incubating please help

    woke up to another chick mostly dry and standing. another pipped. This is a funny hatch quite spread out. It is funny the six polish I hatched all hatched together and have not stopped doing everything together since and they are almost grown. The one cochin I hatched previously is much slower-a...

    I am rudely jumping in here! I also miscalculated my hatch date by 24 hours. Instead calculating from when I received the eggs. So I thought they would hatch yesterday morning and was sadly haunting the incubator all day yesterday and this morning. Noticed a peep and a pip yesterday and...

    Is my chick sleepy or is something wrong

    After hatching my first batch in an incubator after using broody hens I was shocked at how much the chicks slept at first. I had them in an aquarium (obviously not filled with water!) with a heat lamp above in my garage. They were sacked out on their sides like a bunch of slugs almost all the...
