I have 6 White Leggers and 2 RIR's that should be laying soon. The leggers were born 2nd week of December, so they should be around 17 weeks old. When we went out to feed up today, we had a very small white pullet egg.
The question I have.... We just took them off of Medicated Chick Starter 5...
Hello,
I got several chicks 3 weeks ago and they all seem healthy. I kept them under a light until this past weekend where I moved all of them except for the frizzles into the outside holding pen inside of our hen house. I kept the 2 frizzles inside due to that they are in their balding stage...
The chick was hatched in my homemade hatchery.
Humidity is 68%
Temperature is 102*
I have opened my 2 vent holes in the bator. Now what do I do? Is the temp and humidity okay?
I don't want to harm the chick. Right now it's still vet wet. was hatched about minutes ago.
I have an incubator that kept the eggs in until day 18 then I moved them into a hatchery (because I set eggs a week apart). In order to keep my humidity around the 65% range I had to close off the vents in my hatchery. The temp is averaging 99*-100* so I think I'm okay to hatch the eggs...
I am incubating eggs for the first time. I am on day 12, so I have a few more days until we have new chicks. The question I have is, how long do I leave the chick in the bator before I put it out in my hatchery box?
Being new to this, I only have 8 eggs in the bator. But the problem is, I set...
I was wondering if anyone out there can tell what kind of chick this would be. It was given to me today and I have no idea what kind it is.
Thanks in advance.
