For my science fair project this year, me and two others are going to be hatching 36 trader joe's fertile eggs. I have no idea how to properly incubate eggs. I want to do dry incubation as I've heard there are better hatch rates. Does somebody have a link to a step-by-step incubation process...
OK, so yesterday I received for baby chicks from delivery. Today I noticed that one of them had bald spots on either side of her vent. I quickly saw that these were symptoms of chicken mites. I am very scared because she is staying in one place in the brooder, walking around very little. She is...
I was cleaning up Amethyst's pasty butt earlier and I noticed that it looked like the other chicks have plucked a couple feathers out. Possibly in transportation, since the delivery people kept all the chicks four weeks and younger together. She also has a featherless patch going down...
I've had my chicks for a a day now and I'm already attached to Ruby, Sapphire, Pearl and Amethyst... So much that I have separation anxiety at school and when I sleep! Anyone have this issue? Haha.
Hi! I'm smalls, and I recently ordered four chicks a nearby farm. Since I go to school, and my parents aren't home while I'm there, I was wondering if it's okay to leave them alone for that long? I'm rather scared they'll paste up or something and die :( thanks for reading!
