    Healthy Chickens Suddenly Dying?

    I have a few different breeds. Langshans,Cochins,Ameraucanas, etc. None of them have been vaccinated to my knowledge. And I haven't wormed them in probably a year or maybe more.

    Healthy Chickens Suddenly Dying?

    I have a flock of chickens that ranges in age from about 2-4 years old. All of them are healthy and laying. However, every few months we will lose one chicken. One day they will be active and running around their pen, and the next they will be listless and die quickly. Either that day or the...

    Chicks are hatching...Help!

    I have 8 eggs in my incubator. 2 have hatched already, and only one more external pip. It is day 21. Are the other eggs no good or are they just slower at pipping? Waiting is killing me . Also, my humidity is at 64%, I can't get it any higher. Thanks everyone im just getting impatient!

    Question about humidity

    Unfortunately there is no divider between them. When I raise humidity during lockdown it will affect the whole unit. Is there any way I can use this incubator and not have an affected hatch?

    Question about humidity

    So I have an incubator that also has a hatcher in the bottom. Will upping the humidity for the eggs on lockdown hurt the eggs still getting turned/incubated? Or do I just need to buy a separate hatcher to avoid the problem?

    Bantam Cochin hatching eggs

    I have an adorable 7 month old bantam Cochin hen that's been laying for roughly a month. Her eggs are a bit smaller than our older hen that is the same size as her. I was wondering if I hatch her eggs if it will affect the chick since her eggs are so small. Should I wait for her to mature more...

    How to prevent frostbite?

    I've never tried the petroleum jelly, but the temps where I live tonight were well below 4, so I put all my cochin hens in our barn with our 3 month olds. I hope it all goes well. I'm getting tired of this cold weather!

    Problems introducing hens to adult rooster

    Thanks everyone for your help. I have put our new hens in our run so the roo can get used to them. I haven't put them out with him again yet, but he seems to have calmed down quite a bit.

    Problems introducing hens to adult rooster

    So we have had our 9 month old easter egger rooster by himself for a while because it is very hard to find hens in our area. I finally got ahold of some Wyandotte hens that are seven monthes old the other day. The hens are on the smaller side while our ee rooster is huge. I put the two hens out...
