I have a mamma that started with 9 eggs under her, she left the nest yesterday and being curious took a peek and found 19 eggs in the nest. She got back on the nest and we got our first cheeps this morning, how long will she stay sitting, and how long before I move her
Take a good look at the Chick on the left it looks like it has too many eyes
i have no idea what bredd or sex this chick is, if anyone has or has had anything similar could you please let me know what it may turn into
the chick in question is the chick on the right at the drinker
i am using an un-medicated starter crumb for my chicks and wanted to know could i treat them with Coxoid at less than 1 week old. i have scanned the net for advice and come up blank.
any help on this subject would be appreciated.
Cheers Del
Yes this is a picture of her in the hutch and there is a small run attached to it. She is able to get into the run but she hasn't bothered moving since she set. I am going to candle the eggs on wednesday and maybe i should really considder moving her to her new pen then saves having to disturb...
this is Podge my broody sitting on 13 eggs, due 28th may.
i will have to move mother and chicks to a pen built inside my shed and was wondering, at what age would this be best? as she is in a small rabbit hutch at the moment and the Irish weather is still a little unpredictable at the moment...
Hi ive just set my Langshan for the first time( for both of us ) and was wondering how many eggs should she she sitting on. i have no rooster but locals in the village each gave me a few eggs and she has 13 under her, she is a very big bird. is this too many or would she have been able to sit on...
I have a German Shepherd and he just loves my girls,

Did have a little accident with him when he was still a puppy and had to show him a dead chicken is no fun to play with, but im sure whatever...
