Screaming Mimi has a problem was not acting normal yesterday looked like semi prolapse & penguin like posture so when I checked tonight I saw egg trying to come out. I applied some sugar and I have her soaking in warm water w/epsom salt in a dark room. SHe is an older hen.
OK should I wait the whole 4 weeks if I want to sell the eggs for hatching? I was hoping with other men on the job I could get a way with 3 weeks but want to do it right.
I had a younger rooster I sold last month the other 3 roosters remain and I want to know how long I have to wait until his sperm is not in the breeding program? There are about 15 hens in there with the remaining 3 roosters.
Thanks for your time and advice is appreciated.
