I have just set 36 pure breed eggs in my new incubator having read detailed forum advice here about incubating eggs, my main interest being getting the humidity right and not having it as high as the incubator instruction manual so as to not drown the chicks upon hatching. I had read on here...
Does anyone know what breed or cross breed this little surrogate mother bantam hen might be? She is raising 10 chicks that were hatched in an incubator and are not hers. Would really value any thoughts please :-) Thank you! Melanie
I am only new so I would love some professional opinions as to whether this 6 week old chick is a boy or girl. I would really like it to be a pullet because I lovingly raised 3 orpingtons last years only to have them turn out roosters!!! Please tell me it's a girl! Thank you! Melanie
Hello from New Zealand. I'm just new to your site & I've never posted on a forum before but I'd love to know if you think my babies are boys or girls. I suspect I have a white roo but not sure about the others. I'm going to try to upload some photos I took while they were enjoying some sun...
