    Brahma Chicks

    Do all brahma chicks have feathered feet? Just picked up 2 chicks (told they were Brahmas) but their feet are featherless.

    Light Brahma Chicks

    I bought some light brahma chicks, but I'm questioning whether they really are brahmas. Is it possible for brahma chicks to have featherless legs?

    Getting hens to brood

    I thought two of our hens were getting broody so I left a clutch of eggs in one of the nests for two weeks, but neither stayed on the nest. I'd like to hatch eggs naturally rather than through incubation. How do I get a hen to brood?

    Day 24 & Not One Pip

    I purchased six Big Buff Orpington hatching eggs and not one has hatched. It's now Day 24 and no sign of anything happening. They've been in the Hovabator at 99-100 degrees. Humidity was between 50 & 65 through Day 18, then 75+ since. Should I give up and try again? We're all so disappointed.

    Turning Eggs - From Big End to Small End?

    Hatching eggs have arrived, and I know they need to be turned. Question is do I turn them from side to side or from end to end? Thanks.

    Preserving hatching eggs

    Hi, I ordered hatching eggs and an incubator from two separate sources. Not sure which is coming first, and I don't mean the chicken or the egg. How long can the hatching eggs survive after they arrive if the incubator isn't available? Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated by me...
