    On the dry method, you pull both air vents and add no supplemental water throughout entire incubation? Goldenfeather

    newbie with questions

    In my experience remove egg turner and place in its natural position on bottom of incubator. As far as not sure on which end is the pointy end if it is to obvious make your best guestimation and go with that.

    Buff Orpington Roo?

    I hate to be the devil's advocate on this one but I would say that is a cockerel. Orpingtons are slower to mature than some of the other breeds. Had one "Nosey Rose" didn't become "Nosey" until he was almost 20 weeks old and he was the BEST rooster I have ever seen and very sadly missed

    What do I have? Mix of school hatched.

    Need better pics to determine what they are, if your looking to find out about breed/sex we need to see legs (looking at size and color), comb and wattles (looking at color/size/shape), stance (how the bird stands when just standing alone), etc. so if you can post individual pictures of each one...

    Is this a rooster??

    The muffs are a trait that is passed by the Ameraucana breed which is what also provides the gene that gives you easter egg colored eggs which brings you back to why they are called Easter Eggers.

    How to catch a chicken that won't let me anywhere near her? Need to treat for vent gleet

    Throwing a towel or getting her off the roosts in the morning sounds like a good option, you would probably have to get her pretty early to catch her before she's awake good. I grab the fishing net, that seems to work the best for me. I have also heard of others using a wire hanger.

    Polish Thread!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I am not sure this is the correct thread to this on and if not I apologize ahead of time. At what point can you tell the sex of the polish breed, any tell all signs like coloring or Feathering or "hair"? My second year with chickens, first year with polish, are only a little over week.
