    Hi, I'm new!

    Welcome to the coop! If all else falls you can take medical scissors to cut it out but that should be the last resort. (Had to do it once only.). I believe oil will work.

    Time of year for incubating

    We have a generator that can run our refrigerator and freezers, two small back up a/c units used for storms, well pump and electric outlets. We cannot run our electric range though as it is too much of a draw. We lost electric during Helene for a full day but with Irma we lost it for 2 days...

    Time of year for incubating

    It is a very large brooder box with room for the hen to roam. We have a run we will be putting them in this week during the day. We have to put up netting first.

    What made you happy today?

    Checking on our broody hatched chicks and seeing one jump up onto the hens back instead of under her wings. It was funny as once it got up their it lifted its head high as to say “I am King or Queen of the hill”.

    Outdoor Brooder

    We have used both, but not at the same time. We used heat plates for our last two hatches and I like them better. As has been mentioned, unless it is really cold , chicks will run in and out of the plate . Even standing on top of them at times. I cannot say for sure, but it seems we had less...

    Air sac determines sex.

    sorry about the loss of the chick. That is always sad. I did not quite understand what accord. What it in the incubator and it got into the water?

    Need advice!! Allowing hen to hatch chicks (our first time doing so), and have location questions

    We just had a broody hen hatch 7 eggs on Saturday. (One chick died though) We did not intend to have chicks but by the time I realized my husband was not willing to take eggs from under a broody hen they had developed. She remained in the nesting box (cut out milk carton with nesting pad)...

    Air sac determines sex.

    It is fascinating to watch hatching chicks but it is also worrisome. I find the best thing is to keep yourself busy. I would love to see pics when they hatch.
