All six are eating the eggs? How are they cooped in? Or how much free space do they have? I saw a soft shelled duck egg while I was putting my chickens away one night and I turned around and the ducks ate it. They have not tried to eat any of the hard shelled eggs nor the chicken eggs. I am...
The story of my life..... My brother had to manually change the time on my computer. He somehow set it 15 minutes early so I was looking at the clock on the nightstand. It is obviously 2 minutes late. I put in the bid at 8:59 pst. That is what I get for trying the snipe them. So beautiful...
I will ask my friend. She had 2 girls and the coyote got one so she wanted a mate for her. I gave her a drake and he has been in duck paradise but he is acting up. I think she said he is trying to mate the chickens too. I may have to take him back so she may want another for Sunny (her...
I have not had the chance to catch up. I know I am up to my eyeballs with chicks so I know I am not well. I need some intervention. HA! I am wanting Basquehens. Anyone have any? Eggs or chicks. Does not matter. I got some from Greenfire and I am in LOVE. I take the girls on walks with...
I may be closer. I think you mentioned Anaheim. I can probably hatch them but do you have plans for the chicks? I am in Hacienda Heights and my sis lives in Cerritos so I can work something out with you. Just let me know if I can help.

Not sure if you are referring to mine or Miriam's. I do not know how to sex them. They are suppose to be an Auto-sex but I do not see it. Some controversy about it. Also, not sure of the age of Miriam's. Mine are a week old and I would prefer to let them all go in a group. Straight run...
Life has been crazy. I am hoping to be able to make it on Saturday. Will have to decide last minute. Quite a few deciding factors. If I cannot make it, is anyone in the LA area going to San Diego? Cari has my roo and wants to return him. HA!
I knew Miriam wanted Double Yolkers but I...
I HATE rats and mice. They made me give up my chickens many years ago. I can still see them in my head, marching on the chainlink fence and coming out of the hanging feeders.
After buying the new place and having the chicken coop built from scratch. I knew I wanted it predator and RAT...
Cari, As you know, I moved and still spinning from the process. The LAZY person that I am, you cannot move from your current house to the BIG Place instead of a interim place? It is ALOT of work. And stress on the animals.
If not, I would do things moveable. Like kennel panels and not...
I have been pondering buying a cabinet incubator. I always snub the idea because I can see me being on Hoarders faster than you can snap your fingers.
I have some questions for those of you with cabinets. I am deciding between a sportsman and a Brinsea. I know they both have 3 shelves for...
I have honestly never done it. I hope you get the answers you want. I use another incubator to hatch. I think no matter what, the 2nd batch will hit a humidity spike at the wrong time. Also, they never hatch exactly on the date and you will need a couple of days afterwards.

Elara, I have had a rough time lately and you managed you put a smile on my face. HA! This made me think of driving to San Diego for a meetup. I guess it was the first one. Consider yourself lucky. I had to buy a new property to house my addiction.
