    Black on chickens comb ….

    I’ve attached a picture of her from her other side of the comb. She doesn’t get bullied, unless it’s something that just started occurring without me seeing.

    Breed/gender?

    We had 3 eggs hatch out of 6, random eggs from a farmer. They are 7 1/2 weeks old. I believe 2 are copper marans and 1 is an Easter egger. What do you guys think or are they a different breed? Also one of the black one has a significant comb compared to the other black one, guessing it’s a roo...

    Failure hatching eggs

    We have a miracle!!!!! Some how we ended up with 1 little chick! We ended up discarding the 6 eggs within the incubator and the 6 that were under the broody hen we left (figured I let her sit it out till 21 days and then we would pick up 1-2 day old chicks locally for her and swap it for the...

    Failure hatching eggs

    Honestly it’s all possible, they have several acres and you don’t necessarily see all the space. They bring out everything to the front.

    Failure hatching eggs

    We put 6 under our broody and 6 in an incubator. We wanted to see which would have a better hatch rate. But I guess at this point with only 6 days to go we’re at 0/12. We did get them locally, about an hour away. They do have roosters. They sell chicks, edible eggs and fertilized eggs along...

    Failure hatching eggs

    So we got 12 “fertilized” eggs, but now it may seem that they were never fertilized from the beginning and farmer just ripped us off. The incubator has these eggs inside with 6 more days to go, hatching should be this Saturday 2/5. What do you guys think from these eggs? It is my first time...

    12 fertilized eggs? What now….

    We don’t have a rooster so we had to specifically buy fertilized eggs locally. I just got an incubator that’s arriving tomorrow morning so I will be putting 6 in the incubator, while the other 6 I just placed under her tonight. I’ve read that silkies make great moms so I’m hopeful for both you...

    12 fertilized eggs? What now….

    I should have mentioned we’re in Colorado, so its pretty nice during day 45/50 F but night is 25 F. I thought about incubating 6 on my own in a incubator and give her 6…. Would that be a better option?

    12 fertilized eggs? What now….

    Today I am picking up a dozen fertilized eggs from a local farm, unfortunately I wasn’t able to get half a dozen even though I expressed it’s for 1 broody silkie hen. They assured me that silkies can manage 12 eggs. Any suggestions on how to properly introduce the eggs to the silkie hen? I’m...

    Chicken poo normal ?

    Yeah I’ve looked at this article and at first I thought maybe she was suffering from vent gleet, or worms or just simply because she’s indoors and it’s warmer here then outside.
