My first timer araucana hen was sitting in 8 Rhode island red chick eggs.
so far she crushed one at 10 days and now we have 7.
so far 3 hatched and one was nearly killed by other hen.
5th one hatched today, after i had to care for it my self, as the mother crushed that one too, so the sack...
Rhode island chicks were hatching this morning, i took one chick out to try determine the gender, and then my 12 week old orpington comes up to me and looks interested in the chick, so i lower it a little so it can see, BIG MISTAKE!!
it grabbed the chick by the head and hauled it to the ground...
Hi guys!!
I want olive eggers and marans so badly!!
But new Zealand has such a limit on beautiful breeds!
I guess that's because its a new country, 200 years of Europeans.
Can anyone send me olive egger and Marian chooks?
And is that even possible!?
I want them so badly!
So if anyone knows how...
