I don't know how to put on pictures. I'm not great on the computer. Its still alive and moving around in the bator, seems very strong. Its looks like something thats suppose to be inside is hanging out. It just breaks my heart. I keep thinking if it is part of its insides then I wish it would...
I have an egg that hatched early this morning. The chick came out quickly like its very strong but it had a big ball on its behind. Now about 6 hrs later I checked the ball has busted from it jumping around and theres blood (I believe out of the ball) and a thing hanging off the chick last an...
Thanks Jody. I hope some hatch. I love trying something different as long as someone wants them when they are ready to be moved because I don't have room since I already have chickens. Thanks again. Kelly
My neices Dh wants me to try and hatch some ringneck pheasant eggs, I know nothing about pheasants. Could someone fill me in on bator temps,humidity and what to feed them if and after they hatch? I will be keeping them until they no longer need a heat lamp, is that pretty much like chickens? I...
I got 3 pullets from the feed store, they get them from Ideal. 1 is a white leghorn the other 2 are suppose to be the EE's. One is a reddish color with green legs but the other has the chipmunk stripe but whitish-yellow legs. Both have the puffy cheeks. Has anyone ever got what was suppose...
Regular gas is $3.25 gal, milk is $3.99 a gal and Lg. brown eggs like my chickens lay are almost $3 a doz.

5 RIR's and 2 Mutts
I wasn't sure where to post this. I went today to get 2 more bales of hay for bedding. A couple months ago it was $4.25 a bale today its $5.50 a bale! I think when this is about gone I'm going to try shredded paper and see if it works.
I bought eggs from a lady in Texas and only 2 hatched (I'm not to good at hatching) anyway they are frizzles. They are soo pretty. At 7 weeks the roo was already trying to crow, he sounded like a dog that was hit by a car! Both your chicks are cute.

My neighbor swears my RIR roo weighs 40 lbs.! I don't believe he does but hes big and so pretty. Shines in the sun and those long black feathers on his tail are gorgeous!

I have 1 RIR Roo and 4 hens, they are all sweet. Two of the hens will grab me by the pants leg but I believe its because they want attention. The Roo has never been mean.

My RIR Roo is a baby! He's huge but scared of everything. Now the one hen grabs my pants leg and will peck me if she gets a chance.

5 RIR, 2 mutts
I have 2 chicks that the dad was a frizzle and the mother a EE or American. They look like frizzles, one is blue (I think a roo) and the other is brown colored. I think they are so cute. I hope to get some frizzle eggs this spring so I can add new blood. Yours are so pretty.

I wish I could post pictures but I haven't figured that part out yet. I hatched 2 chicks (a week old now) that a lady sent me from Texas. She said they were mutts, some she rescued and that some she had laid blue/green eggs. Ok one of the chicks has a stripe down its back like a chipmunk and is...
I had to help a chick hatch that had been trying for 2 1/2 days to get out. I believe it was too big for the egg and was curled in a ball. One thing thats wrong is its one foot curls in. Any ideas if it can be helped? I'm not sure if there will be anymore problems or not as it just got out...
I have 12 mutt eggs that are on day 21. Two have hatched, one started pipping yesterday about noon and has only made it to a opening about an inch long by about 1/2 inch wide. I can see it breathing and its beak opening but it doesn't seem to be able to break anymore of the shell (it looks...
