    My broody hen is killing its new hatched chicks

    In the gap it took to make this post, it has killed another. I have removed all the eggs from around it. It is still sitting on some. Will try to get them when she leaves for food.

    My broody hen is killing its new hatched chicks

    It's her first time sitting. Right now she doesn't have any chicks to look over. I will keep an eye and take away new born chicks as soon as possible. Perhaps I'll let her keep the last 3-4 chicks.

    My broody hen is killing its new hatched chicks

    I have a chicken run with four egg laying hens. Earlier I used to collect the eggs everyday, but last month, I let it remain. One of the hens sat on the eggs for the most part, and the others did some time too. It started sitting on about 15, but I last counted 35 eggs, as the others continue to...

    Is Dry Hatching really a thing?!

    The last chicken in the current batch has hatched and thanks to all of you who shared your two cents and all the praises and thanks to God. I started with 32 - six were infertile. I discarded one by Day 14, unlike eight in my first attempt. Finally, off the remaining 25, 21 hatched. I had to...

    Ended Hatching Fowl Photo Contest—16th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-Along

    I had to help this guy hatch and clicked him in my hand not knowing the rules. So I blurred out my hand from the original photo.

    The actual image had two baby chicks and a heavily pipped egg within the frame, but wasn't sure whether I should include them. So I cropped just the guy who got out a few seconds earlier.
