    HELP! ASAP! Chick not hatching under mother.

    Our hen is hatching her babies and one is hatching outside mama. It is about 69 degrees out side. Do I move it back under mama? I just put a heat lamp in the coop just incase. Any suggestions would be very helpful.

    HELP!! SO WIERD. A miracle/mystery chick???

    All the chicks came from a different breed. She is a surrogate hen. But if this random new chick survives and grows up I can tell if this is her baby or not.

    HELP!! SO WIERD. A miracle/mystery chick???

    Nope, she is the only hen with eggs at the moment. It is very weird! I keep telling my self to let it go and not worry about it. But my brain wont let me, I stayed up all night trying to figure out the logic in it. I hope he survives, poor thing looks like he has a neck brace on.

    HELP!! SO WIERD. A miracle/mystery chick???

    This is all well and makes sense but the math does not add up. My hen went broody on one unfertilized egg. I went to my friends house and got 10 fertilized eggs. I removed the unfertilized egg and placed all 10 fertilized eggs under her. 7 chicks hatched from the 10 eggs, 3 were left and were...

    Is it ok if the hens are in view of the roosters but they are unable to get to them?

    What do I do with all my roosters?

    My hen hatched 4 roosters and I'm not sure what to do with them. I cant find anybody who wants them, we dont plan on eating them. Can I keep all my roosters happy together in a coop together? Is it possible? I dont want them to kill each other.
