Hi everyone. Hope all the chicken lovers are enjoying their summer!

To self (lol yes I talk&type to myself) wondering... do I pop final 2nd vent&chance wonky temp changes&quickly pull peep out&put him in broader POSSIBLY disturbing 'to hatch' chicks OR hang tight?? Ahhh...I know, no one has to say it...bbl (going to bang my head on the wall),, Clunk clunk c l u n k

@Audy Hopefully thru the icky smudges from me quickly cleaning that exploding egg you can see the one tiny Golden Laken velder.(?)

@jenifer Its belated&catching up on thread but sorry about your poor little ducks beak. Hopefully it's doing ok&eating now..def not a baby that should be using a drip bottle to drink(just my opion).

X me too!

Hi room! Ok I have been trying to,let nature take it's course but I'm looking hope. One chick fully hatched yesterday(early) and 6eggs in incubater with it. Ugh after feeding kids I go peek&one egg exploded. I took it out quickly (temp only dropped 2degrees&went back up) I'm pretty nervous I'm...

Crumbles are just that, fine grainules&easier for young pullets&growing cockerals to digest however it seems a great deal goes to waste&squirrels and worms might find their way quickly to your flock. Pellets look a lot like rabbit&horse feed..small formed bits..least for us our birds don't waste...

Welcome. Not gonna pretend a part of me is not yelling within,,,,"Why in the world would someone dump a perfectly good bird?" people do crazier things though everyday. There's a family that raises those not far from me. Watch&see if she lays an egg tomorrow&keep us updated, please!

Lol good story

82°f in Va&dry. Very comfy in the shade. Been out for few days....catching up&can I just say I want a purple box fan too!lol.

Appears a buff laced 'she' to this polish moma. Very pretty&soft feather color.

Went into lock down last night(saturday). A Dominique chick had started in an egg. NO clue what caused it's egg to explode.? Err makes me SO frustrated! Quickly cleaned it up&didn't disturb other eggs that should hatch Monday.

Just catching up.. Big hug@((jennifer)) sorry about polish peep that didn't survive zip.

Name~"Squirt" Age~9months old Gender~cockeral Breed~silkie/strawberry comb First time I have cared/had silkies, he came named. (we call him&the two that came with him the 3amigo's cause they are so sweet)

@chickent555 I like the "sweeping hair" reference very good way to describe it. Btw Happy belated fourth to all.
