    Chick leg injury

    I need some help with this girl here. She's a 4 week old silkie chick now. She had what appeared to be splayed leg at about 10 days old, so I banded her with a straw and rubber band. It seemed to help but while doing that, I noticed that her leg back facing toe wouldn't bend. I just figured...

    Gosling help!

    This little guy (African gosling) hatched yesterday and the incubator he was in, he didn't have room to move around really at all from what I was told. We put him in the brooder and gave him the night to get his legs under him. Well when I came to check on him this afternoon, I noticed that...

    Looking for turkey hens in Colorado!

    I raise and sell turkeys and I've had someone reach out to me looking for some turkey hens. The back story that I have is that her grandma got 4 turkeys and they all ended up being toms. I gather that the grandma is now attached to the toms and isn't wanting to get rid of any which is...

    Newest feather baby cross!

    There are some fun markings coming in on my latest cross baby and I feel like sharing. Back story... I started my flock with some black silkie chicks (all hens) but I wanted to hatch so I snagged a couple of non HOA approved free old English roos. Voila! My own mini chicken crossing experiments...

    Installing fan... Please advise

    I got a dual layer incubator off of cl but the fan for thw bottom level wasn't installed. I've read that the air needs to blow upwards but I didn't know if that still applied since there would be eggs right above the fan and if it blows down it would be onto the water. The heat source is at the...

    New guinea chick not walking on feet! Help!

    I hatched this baby 2 days ago from an order of shipped eggs so I have no idea about her (it's just easier to say it) genetics. Ok thought she just needed to stretch out at first so I gave her the day. That night she still wasn't really walking. She's moving around using her hocks? (knees) and...

    Newby to Hatching Quail

    Hello! I ordered some quail hatching eggs online and when it finally got dark and I had a minute, I candled them and 11 of the 20 look blue inside! I've hatched geese, ducks, and turkeys so I'm used to the pinkish tint when you candle fresh eggs but I've never seen blue before. I'm not sure if...
