    Any idea what breed and color these chicks are?

    A local farmer gave me 12 eggs to hatch but they had no idea what breed their chickens are. The eggs were small and light brown/cream color. I think they might be Cochin but I'm not sure and the silver/white color is throwing me off. Any ideas what breed they might be and what color?

    He/She is almost 5 weeks and stands like a rooster but has a lot more feathers than the other Barnie chick but it's comb is smaller and isn't as red. Anybody have any ideas on gender or is it too early to tell? As a feather comparison the chick in the front is the same age and breed

    Rotten egg?

    I ordered 12 eggs off Ebay on June 3. They arrived last Friday (the 7th). I let them sit in a cool place all day and put them in the incubator last night.

    Guineas in town?

    What is the most common time of the day a goat will give birth?

    I have a boer goat that is expected to kid soon. What time of day is most common? Is it in any way related to when you feed them? I just figured if I knew what was common then I could expect her to do the opposite.

    Politics in schools?

    I don't want to start a debate. I just want to know if rules for teacher regarding what they can and can't discuss. What I mean is can a teacher talk bad about politicians. I’m just upset about something that my sisters teacher told her class and it might be something that could get her fired.

    Underground Fence?

    One of my dogs can get out anywhere. We have tried putting things around the base of our chain link fence and even tying the fence down but nothing works. He just goes right under or digs right through. He has an id on his collar so luckily people call when they find him, but I'm worried he'll...
