    Any clue? Chicken?

    D7F41571-9548-49D4-B1DB-91BEC5A92428 by SunnyDay123 posted Jan 31, 2018 at 1:46 PMMy daughter incubated some eggs that she got from her farm class. The egg was small, white and hatched at 16-17 days, I believe. She is still small and now the others have gotten much bigger and are picking on her...

    Anybody have luck changing ordinances? Fundraising?

    I contacted my local town, they said I can be put on the agenda for December...not ready. But have to get everything to them, including $600 to have a public hearing at the meeting and $250 to try to get a variance. Recommended for us to do both. My daughter really wants a couple of chickens...

    Help? No internal pip but external egg cracked.

    So this chick started to make an external pip last night. It made a little progress but nothing has changed. Egg chopped off, but looks like membrane is still intact. I just candled it and the air cell doesn't look like it pipped the air cell. So is it is in the wrong position? I don't see any...

    Where to begin...in Illinois

    So, we incubated our first chick who hatched last night. We have more chicks to come. We've known that we can't keep them (going to grandparents and the lil farmer class), but it's a good project for us and my daughter, who happens to be homeschooled, so it's very educational. Anyway, where we...

    Time from internal to external pip? When to candle again?

    So this is my first time. These eggs are early. Last night around 6 pm noticed that a chick's beak in the air cell when I was candling, didn't realize so far along.

    Was planning on getting ready for lockdown tomorrow, but being the newbie I am, I was reading about what I need. Didn't realize that Bantams, need to go on lockdown sooner after reading about lockdown on here. So, went to candle chicks tonight to check air cells. Well, one of the little eggs has...

    And, so it begins...

    We are so very new to chickens. My parents have chickens and got a couple for my young daughter who loves chickens. They are one of her favorite animals. And, now I am incubating eggs with my young daughter. Since we can't have chickens where we live at least we can let her watch and see them as...

    Incubating a week apart in same incubator?

    My daughter and I are incubating eggs that she got from her Lil Farmer class. She got 8 eggs and 6 appear to be developing (on day 14 now). Well, I got eggs from my parents who thought for sure their eggs weren't fertilized, but wanted to double check...just in case. We put them in the incubator...
