    Best Online Hatcheries...

    I have ordered from murray mcmurray the last couple times. Their birds are decent but as bluecoondawg talked about they ship on Fridays so they sit a little longer than optimal. Unfortunately it led to heavy losses, which they then replaced. Seems like my replacement order always does lots...

    I put fertile eggs under a clucky bantam but they don't all fit. Advice?

    People have done it with a heat lamp. I would get a thermometer to set with them to ensure proper temp and maybe place a damp paper towel over them for humidity?

    In lockdown and got a stinker

    So I am on second day of lockdown, went to rewet my sponge and there is a not so wholesome smell:(. I don't know which egg has gone bad....:(. Am I going to ruin the viable chicks by inspecting eggs at this point? I know that they move into hatch position during the last three days.

    Lethargic and placid

    I keep Corid, vet rx, oxytetracycline, save a chick, vitamin supplement that goes in water, safeguard, and sevin type dust for mites around. And of course I have neosporin, and other antibiotic type stuff for injuries. I like bactine because it has a numbing agent too. Vet said it was fine...

    Can toxic algae in lake cause the swan to go lame?

    I surely don't know but I'd be very interested to hear what the vet comes up with. Hopefully she makes it.

    Entire flock of sick chickens. :(

    If you have to eliminate your flock and you decide you would like some hatching eggs I would send you some if you just pay the shipping. Could send speckled sussex and maybe a few partridge rock if you want. I know it sucks to lose an entire flock:(
