So i set some turkey eggs a few ago and i realized i would be going on a trip when they hatch. My mother will stay and watch the poults hatch but she has no experience with these type of birds. Is there any advice you could give me about hatching turkeys? Thanks
No offense but i think she can go for it and i don't "personally think that is a positive thing to say to someone who wants to hatch their own eggs! You are here to give good information and if you don't have facts proving that then stand back and let them do what they choose. Thankyou and...
You could cook her some scrambled eggs, as to my chickens they look delicous! And if you get really desperate you can buy bird formula (at the pet store for like 7 to 8 dollars) and get a syringe and squirt some in her mouth, I hope your duck is ok!
Here is some more pictures, sorry the chicks were at that ugly teen stage! But the hen has the splash gene and the white in the backround is a splash too!
This is a picture of one of the chicks i got from them, i don't have any recent photos of the flock and my camera broke, will try asap! pm me for pictures, i should have them by tomorrow!
Hi i have splash silkies and partridge silkies, so i have decided to cross them and see what turns out! (they are all purebred silkies) i have an incubator already full and every single one has been fertile, will post pictures when they hatch! You will get how ever many you want! I am charging...
Hi sorry guys i will post pictures now! I have been so busy! Here is what i got, exactly what i ordered, 6 assorted silkies, 4 blue polish, and i got 5 extra packing peanuts(male rir) This is the best hatchery i have ordered from, none of mine died or anything! I was so pleased! All the chicks...
Ok so i am new to the hatching process, so there was an egg that had been peeping for around 18-20 hours, it started cheeping really loud so i candled it to see where the chicks head was in the air cell and i carefully poked a hole in the opposite side to ensure i didn't hit the chick. So i get...
No mine are lied sideways, i got a couple more baskets and separated the batches to small ones with more room, so my babies have room to hatch! 5 1/2 days left till hatchday!
I thought i would also ask you about spacing, do they need a lot of space? I have them in different baskets, because they have different mommas, They have enough room where they can wiggle but i am afraid they will have to sit on eachothers eggs till they all hatch!
Hi i am wondering if i ruined my eggs! My incubator was 99.5 last afternoon. Then i checked it again this afternoon and it was 90 f will that ruin them because it was too cold? Help!
Here they are and the parent stock have the splash gene!
(some of these pictures are older and some are new, but the same flock) I have 10 hens to 4 roosters!
Hi guys in 6 days i will have chicks that i can send in the mail! I will have around 15 chicks hatch in 6 days! If you want any reserve chicks you need to reserve now! These chicks will be 1/4 splash , 2/4 blue 1/4 black. I will only ship when they hatch. I am asking $2 per chick and $20...
