    Chick can’t flip over

    UPDATE: I took all 3 chicks out and put them in the brooder. I held the one having trouble upright in my hand for a while and now he is walking around. Still a little wobbly but much better.

    Chick can’t flip over

    Chick is still on its side, two other eggs have not hatched. I brought the incubator into the bathroom after running the hot shower, made sure it’s was good and steamy, opened it just enough to try and flip the chick. Chick fell right back and now I’m worried I’ve hurt the other two.

    Chick can’t flip over

    I have 5 eggs in an incubator, 2 have hatched and one hatched overnight. The one that just hatched looks like it’s struggling to flip over from its back. Is there anything I should do or give it some time to do it on its own? The two other eggs have pipped.

Now that they’re almost fully feathered, they all look the same. Someone here also said they look like Red...

    Meat chicken? Help

    So when I got my chicks at TSC, there were only 3 left in pullets, so they made me buy a random straight run to make 4 (that’s the requirement for purchase) and turns out it was a Cornish x Broiler. He’s huge. I do not want to slaughter chickens, so I’m unsure how to care for him. Hes really...

    Hens or roosters?

    Hello :) I bought 3 straight run Rhode Island Reds from TSC and they’re a little over 5 weeks old now. What do you all think, roosters or hens? I have a photo of 2 of them, but all 3 look identical as far as comb size. I also have 6 Isa brown pullets the same age and they look the same as well...
