    newly hatched keets

    I just hatched some guineas and some have one leg that sticks straight out. Some of them came out of it and are normal but some not. Any ideas why and should I just put them down. They are a week old and hatched out of a hova bator. Thank you!

    How do you incubate egg carton style?

    I have heard that you can incubate eggs using and egg carton method. Just unsure how to turn the eggs. This sounds cheaper than buying an auto turner for my old Brower! Currently hand turning 49 chicken eggs! Thank you in advance!

    turkey and duck eggs

    Can you incubate turkey eggs and duck eggs together? They have the same hatch time 28days. I know duck eggs need more humidity but in a hovabator does this matter? It would be great if you could because the two breeds seem to lay at the same time. Thank you.
