Most of my chickens are free run and there is enough of everything for them sample - but not destroy. Occasionally I have to keep some in a run that now has very little left growing in it. I'd like to plant some plants that do well with the excess nitrogen and are not so tasty to the chickens...
My hen went boordy so I got some fertilized eggs for her to sit on. It is day 22 now and they are looking the same as day 1.
I really thought yesterday they would hatch, I'm getting kind of sad now. Any words of advice out there?
New at Chickens.
My hen is sitting on 6 eggs and they are ready to hatch any day now.... can she do it on her own?
Can I leave the chicklets with her?
Will the rooster give the babies a hard time? Are roosters good fathers?
I am a worried new chicken mom.
