My young sex link has been acting very strange lately...off by herself and sleeping lots...sleeps standing up even...this girl is laying such huge double yolk eggs...one every 3rd day... I wonder if it's caused internal damage?
Today she layed just a yolk right in front of me.
What do I do?
These are just barnyard eggs....but this would be my first hatch!
These eggs were in the electric skillet till day 18....candling showed them all growing and moving...had to switch them to the new Brower incubator because I messed up the humidity in the skillet grrr I really wanted them to...
I know...it's hard to see but all I had time for today. Any guesses?
I think it's salmon fav. I can't even tell from pic if this one has the furry legs....do golden phoenix?
1) Can these be sexed young?
2) Also out of 15 only one has very nicely feathered brown wings....should they all have been like that?
3) Some I notice have very thick legs...mean anything?
Thanks members!
Can anyone give me a link or show me pics of a male and female silkie?
Just the head shot would be great, and from the side.
I have 3 whites...2 look slicked back and 1 looks puff ball at least so far...the 2 high and slicked back are roos right?
Mine are 10 weeks old...can these head shapes...
Have a chick that sleeps all the time, so hard to wake her!
I put her at the water dish and nudge her...then she drinks...so several times I nudge her....then over to feeder...same thing. She is about 5 days old now.
Have her in with the new japanese so she's not trampled.
She has gotten...
Fertile eggs wanted or day olds shipped?
Really prefer Ridley Bronze or Bourbon Reds.

Guess some fool has had fun?
I have a PunBB site also..so I have alerted them BYC has been hacked....when they read my post...whenever that may be....I'm sure they can get you all back on track!
I have to change my order at McM I mentioned I wanted brown eggs and they ordered me white layers...so what are the best of the best brown layers for size ?
I read so far Buff orps and New Hampshire is this true?
Hi,
Same like chickens only huge?
Huge nest boxes?
Boxes on the ground?
How far off the ground for roost or don't need one?
What size doorway do these big birds need?
Do they get broody? if so need privacy?
What size eggs do they lay?
Any advice very appreciated - thanks

Hi, Planning a roos bachelor section.
What will they need ? just a roosting pole?
no nests exactly- do they just lay wherever?
Is a roosting pole better at a window or in the dark?
Use a large dowel? or strictly 2 x 4
thanks!
On the weekend I found the white dot on the yolk of store-bought eggs.
I opened 8 and 7 had the dots.
Some of my own fertile eggs have that when I bring them in from under the broody.
If I left them another day that dot would be a bullseye.
Right?
