    skinny chicken

    I've had one chicken die so far. They are all molting. I have noticed another hen getting very skinny with no other symptoms.

    Dry Hatch Humidity

    I live in Virginia. I've been reading about this method and want to give it a try. My first hatch went terribly wrong but i've now bought a hygrometer.

    we finally did it....

    I have my first broody hen and she is only sitting on 1 egg. We went to our local poultry auction and they had some hatching eggs. I bid on a dozen americana eggs and won the bid. So my husband says let's go look at an incubator just in case the hen doesn't want to sit on the egg anymore. So we...

    Black Australorp with feathered feet?

    Identical to an australorp with lightly feathered feet. French black maran? Lays brown eggs but not chocolate color. Bad hatchery quality? Don't have pictures yet.
