    Quote: You Border the Mason-Dixon line in MD....It's not like you are really that far south anyway. Confederate flags aren't really flown in MD. CA is a whole different story. I can't answer that either

    ???Got A Hatchery Rant??? Post It Here!!!

    I ALSO ordered 20 Light Brahma Pullets and 8 White Silkies from Murray Mcmurray two months ago. I was sent 8 White Frizzle Cochin Bantams, and the Light Brahmas Are TERRIBLE! They were nearly completely black! I know not to expect show quality from hatchery, but this isn't even true to breed...

    Almost a tragedy!

    I think it time for sticky to remind everyone of the dangers of the red brooder bulbs. This has been happening a lot lately. Sometimes we forget about little things that may seem like common sense, but in reality, we forget, we're just human. I'm so happy that you got their in time. Someone was...

    How old before winter?

    I live in Pennsylvania......You could get chicks safely until about October. After 6-7 weeks most chicks don't need anymore het, and even if it did get very cold, a lamp would suffice after they are 6-7 weeks until they are mature. I have brooded chicks right through the coldest of winter.

    online poultry auction

    I have to agree...it is going downhill fast. Things are posted wherever and whenever people want. No rhyme or reason. Categories have no meaning to the sellers. I emailed Eggbid about it, to no avail

    Duck Hatching when do you help ???

    I don't help. It's all up to mother nature in my incubator. Any time i have ever helped a chick out when I first started to incubate eggs, it always turned out bad. Ryan

    Can you really tell the sex from the shape of the egg???

    No, no truth to it. All eggs are female (X,X) to begin with, they just require an extra chromosome to be male,(X,Y) and a for that, it's just thee luck of the draw.

    Poor TSC chicks...

    Well you did the right thing to notify the snippy employee. You could have called local oggivials. but you didn't. So they should be thankful to you!

    Shipping 5 Day Old Chicks

    I've shipped countless birds, especially peafowl of all ages through express mail. Even shipped hundred of 4-8 week old ornamental pheasants express, never lost a bird. They would be fine. Ryan
