    Egg yolk sac?

    She said the closest answer she got was either assisted hatching, or too hot incubator to cause them to develop and hatch faster. The store sent her 6 chicks vs 5 so I think they knew this one might not make it

    Egg yolk sac?

    This is her 2nd batch of hatchlings she has raised, she went through a few pasty butt issues last time. She originally thought this WAS the same, tried soaking it, then realized it wasn't the same, or same area, She said this was attached to the umbilical area. The chick passed last night

    Almost finished our coop & run

    I added some boredom busters today, all the rain we got completely jacked up the run floor. Any tips on helping it dry faster? It's been sunny today but the run has a solid roof.

    Almost finished our coop & run

    It does have wire buried all around :) Oh and our house is grey and cream colored. Not very interesting lol. I was thinking maybe a light blue. Not too sure yet! I think whatever it will be, I'll do the trim grey to at least match a little

    Almost finished our coop & run

    We have the general build done, now I just need to add trim and paint it! The coop was built by my friend who originally had these chickens, she has to move to a rental so we brought them plus the coop home. It was awful to transport. We rebuilt the run and just got finished with that...
