    Going into lockdown with saddle shaped air cell

    This one is in the house but can hear my other chickens making noises outside, she seems happy enough. I'm incubating some more so if I cant find her a friend before then atleast she will have some eventually

    Going into lockdown with saddle shaped air cell

    That's lucky you found someone so close. They are buff orpingtons, no one anywhere near me has any. Atleast I got 1 little baby, very sad to see it on it's own though. Can't find any chicks for sale that I could get to keep her company. The trouble of living in the middle of no where

    Going into lockdown with saddle shaped air cell

    Hi, my one little survivor has made it to day 17, she has a saddle shaped air cell, do I still lie her down flat for lockdown tomorrow? A friend suggested putting it in an egg carton to keep it upright? It's been incubated upright so far, but not sure how to approach lockdown with it. Thanks

    Hi, ive got my first brahma's and am wanting to hatch some in spring when they start laying. But firstly I was wondering can I breed this rooster to these hens (2 are still chicks so not laying yet) and get standard colours? Not the leghorn obviously Thanks

    Hi everyone, sorry not posted for ages. As you probably know after petal (my first chick who died at 1 week old) hatched I put some eggs in the incubator before she died. Anyway once she died I wished I hadn't as I was so upset! well how glad am I that I put them in now. I had the temperature...
