What do you think is the best to put on the bottom of a new chick brooder for day olds up to 2 weeks old? It would need to be lifted out, by brooder is 24 in x 48 in. heavy wood box. It would need to be tiny, right?
They are the official egg of: Green Eggs and Ham, so they will taste extra good, just like the rest of the home grown eggs. The eggs taste according to what the hen eats, so a natural diet makes the best tasting eggs, an all store-bought feed makes eggs that taste like store bought eggs. Good...
Hi, I am an hour plus south of Cincy. I will gladly ship you a white silkie hen for the cost of a box and actual shipping and $12.00 for the hen. I can send pics and let you pic which one you want. I have about 5 solid whites for sale.
That is what I am thinking to do too. I had some suet cages that I am using, they work great but I only have two. They need to be tall enough to hold eggs and chicks but not so tall as to hinder the bottom tray from turning. I sure wish I had a separate hatcher, that will be my next major...
I am hatching my eggs in the hatcher drawer of the Sportsman and need a BETTER way to keep the chicks separated at hatch time. I do not want to open the door too often and as of now I am using plastic baskets, a suet feeder cage and a plastic tomato container with large air vents in the clear...
I think it is too early to tell, but I would guess a hen first there and then a Tom. One has bigger thicker legs and one has a bigger head too, he also has the bigger legs. Of course, they may not be the same age, but appear to be. Good luck, one of each would be good.
I would go with the tree area, for the shade and weather protection. Out in the open is often windy, too hot or too cold and chickens just seem to like trees. My coop in in a small orchard, so the birds get the fallen fruit and more importantly, the bugs. It works well for us. Good luck with...
I will be hatching 10 to 12 Royal Palm Turkey Poults tomorrow. Must purchase all of them hatched to keep them warm enough for shipping, and must be shipped within 3 days of hatch. Cost of shipping will be price of approved shipping box and actual shipping fees. These will be straight-run...
I have seen photos of Broody hen arks, but cannot locate the source. Anyone have any links to a simple, broody hen ark that has three solid sides and a slatted front? One that will let the chicks through, but keeps the hen in. I would appreciate any links or photos as I want to build one for...
