Sure hope somebody on here can help me! I hatched out three ringneck chicks about 7 or so weeks ago. All was fine up until last week. I was gone on vacation and my dad was checking on them for me and he called and said one of them had a crooked neck. Now I really didnt belive him because when I...
Man I wish I was closer cuz I am looking for a male ringneck to put in with my three ladys that are lonely. If anybody close to Iowa that would ship a live bird I would love to hear from you!!! Thanks Tink

I ran the bottom part of the styro bator through the dishwasher and it worked great. Now I know I read it somewhere but cant find it now can you also put the plastic water tray that comes with the hovabators in the dishwasher also? I wish there was an easy way to pull the electrical components...

AHHA I remember now!!! haha Is there anyway for an amatuer to be able to tell the sex after they hatch or how long do you have to wait to be able to tell any other way? I wanna let some go in the wild and keep a few for breeding but dont wanna keep a bunch of roosters!!! Thanks
Ive got 2 eggs pipped and several making noises and was wondering how long it takes them to get outta the shell? Dang had another ? and lost it will post again if remember!!! LOL
