These are the ultimate bantams. We got eggs from Blue Grass Seramas last year and hatched them out. They have all been kept indoors in breeding pens. Our chickens are hand raised with love, around kids and noisy dogs. They are fed Organic feeds.
We have 10+ chicks for $10.00 each born Sept...
Hi,
I'm super frustrated. I can't get the picasaweb image links to work in the for sale section. I've tried adding <img></img>, , <img src="></img>, etc... Nothing shows up. I have a slideshow I'd like to use too, but nothing. I see lots of posts showing how to use photobucket, but I...
Hey,
I'd like to build one of these feeders.
It says, "Chicken activated automatic feeder! Learn more at www.backyardchickens.com" I haven't had any luck finding anything on here. Anyone know where to find the instructions?
Thanks!

I hatched a couple of Serama eggs. One looks like it should, but then there's this one???? Feathered feet???? No response from the breeder, so I'm hoping for some ideas. It has a larger body than the Serama, and much smaller wings. Came from silkie/serama sized egg.
Then I'd also like to...

My ameraucana chick is less than a day old. It's fluffed out. Looks healthy, but... keeps tilting its head so far back it falls over backward. Then it has a hard time getting back up again, because its still got its head tilted way over its back. Is this fixable? What's wrong? Will I have...
Hi all,
Is anyone else having difficulties registering? I registered about a month ago. Well I tried to.... never got the required password e-mail. I've written them 4 times.... no reply. Now what should I do? Some sellers only use eggbid. I'm super frustrated.
I have a silkie chick 6 days old. First it was showing spraddle leg. So did the bandaid treatment. We are still using this. However its right foot is turned at a right angle to its body. How do I fix it?
Hi all,
I'm looking into getting a hatcher today to supplement my incubator. I'm finding the need to stagger my hatches. Any recommendations? I currently have a 1588 hova-bator. Maybe get another one with out the turner? Are still air incubators better for hatching? I seem to remember...
This is my first hatch. I'm kind of loopy running on 1 hour of sleep. But I couldn't miss out. Anyway I have 17 that have hatched and another 6 that have pipped. I want to take out the dry oldies and put them in the brooder. My humidity is soooo high with them all in there and they...
I can't believe the amount of dust chicks make. No one warned me! What do you do to keep it down? Our chicks are in our living room and even dusting daily.... they still manage to have everything coated again by the next day. Help! I have a hatch coming up and am worried about this.

Ok, so on day 18 the eggs need to stop being tilted. But do I take them out at the end of day 18 or the beginning? I added them to the bator at 12:00am Tuesday the 17th. Yes, that could also called late Monday night. I always seem to be up late. So tomorrow should be day 18 and time to...
I'd appreciate your input. I'm confused and worried on a couple of points.
I added my eggs at 12:00am on Tuesday March 17.
Would day 18 be 12:00am Saturday April 4?
Would day 21 be 12:00am Tuesday April 7?
Is a digital thermometer that includes a humidity reading as good as a hygrometer...
Hi all,
I have a 1588 with the egg turner and eggs (added at 12 this morning). What I don't have is a good way to add water. I do better with pictures. Sooo what do you do when adding water? Is there a way to add water and not open the top? It took over 8 hours to recover its heat when I...
Hi All,
While poking around the hatching eggs on e-bay (looking for silkies) I came across a seller who dips her eggs.
"I dip every egg I put in my own incubator in disinfectant to avoid seeding my incubator with bacteria. Since we all know where eggs come from, I do the same to yours before...
