    How many eggs under a Broody

    I have a friend who put 15 eggs under her Orp. As of last night eight have hatched. Today is the actual due date. I believe you can put as many under a hen as she can cover. It depends on the size of the hen, my friends Orp could cover 15. Of course the Bantum can not cover as many as...

    Mosquitoes!!!!!!

    One of the few advantages of being surrounded by vineyards is the absence of mosquitos. If you are willing to spray whatever it is they are using (I have no idea) you can eliminate the problem. To keep them away from you I have read you can put a fabric softener sheet in your pocket. Again...

    reducing my post history

    I know it can be done I just cannot find where it tells us how. There are getting to be too many posts listed on my post page to be able to find any particular post I am looking for. I was hoping to keep the posts on informative strings and eliminate the "friendly" responses to make it easier to...

    One chick - one day early - DEAD !!! What have I done ?

    There was no yolk to inspect, only yellow fluid. I sent the results to the person I was testing for. He is so nice. He said he would send me more eggs. I am worried that it might have been something I did. I was so careful, I can't think what it could have been. Still, I am cautious to...
