Around/under the heating element the hygrometer is reading the same temp as show on the incubator temp reader. If i move the hygrometer around the incubator away from the heating element i'm getting a variance in temp by 5-10°. It holds 40 eggs I will only be setting around 20. Would you suggest...
What temp does everyone run their farm innovator pro series at? I realize this incubator is not the best and I plan to get a new one after this hatch. Temps shown on the screen are way off but I have a hygrometer placed in there to accurately measure temp/humidity. I have had horrible hatch...
One seems more frog like than the others. I've tried not to mess with them much since I just brought them home. I didn't know if someone could tell by feather coloring even though they all look pretty similar.
Hi, I got these Khaki Campbell ducklings yesterday. I was told they were 5 months old. Does anyone have a clue for if I have females in the group. The only difference I have been able to tell is one has a beak that is light more yellow than the others. Thanks
Ahhh okay! We're butchering a round of cornish X next weekend and was interested in that! We actually got a flock of 40 today (SLW, Black australorp, RIR, Buff rocks, Barred rocks) 30 hens and 10 roos and were going to keep some roos as breeding stock and butchering the rest. We typically do not...
I ended up finding blue cochins even though I did have to take a rooster. Now i'm looking for silkie hens/pullets. I'm not interested in a pair as I already have an overload of roosters. If anyone knows anyone that has a pullet or hen I am interested!
Unfortunately not :( I've found better luck on FB groups. There are NC groups for chicken keepers that people post on everyday. Also my local feed store will have some whiting true blue pullets next weekend i'm going to pick up!
I have Serama chicks available for new homes 🐣 They are around a week old and will be smooth or frizzle feather type. I also have one silkie chick available and will have ducklings in the next week. Carthage, NC.
Hi! I had one silkie hatch out of three eggs. I haven't named him/her yet. I'm curious about the coloring. Her/his mom is a black bearded silkie hen and father could be a black bearded roo or white splash bearded roo. The coloring on the chick seems orange/brown near the face. Has anyone seen...
