    Help!! Wrong feed to my cockerels!

    I've been laid-up due to minor surgery and my son inadvertently bought and fed medicated feed to the boys set for slaughter. They have been on it for 5 days. How long should I keep them on it and how long after feeding them non-medicated feed can they be butchered?

    Check Out these Crosses

    I had a Partridge Rock roo with a Buff Rock and a Barred Rock. Thought I'd see what would happen. Here they are as chicks. Today at 11 weeks. Cockerels look almost identical. Pullet a beautiful iridescent black. I may try the cross again to get mates.

    I found one of these for $100. A year old. Anyone familiar with these? Can you do smaller batches? 20-30? How does lock-down work or is using a hatching bator better? Thanks for any input!!

    Help! Wrong End Pip???

    Will a chick make it out if the pointed end is pipped?? Looks like two of 7 are doing that. I've got another 17 due Saturday/Sunday - should I adjust there positions before then? They went into lock-down last night.

    Candling Questions-day 18 light showing thru at the pointed end?

    First time hatching and when I move the first batch into a lock-down bator I candled and noticed a couple were dark in the middle but light showed through the pointed end. Are these dead? Also the air sack looks a little on the small size - what problems could that cause? Thanks

    Are these Partrige Rocks??

    I purchased these guys last spring as chicks from a small farm that raises these and Buff Rocks. I think they are handsome. They were a little anxious as I took the photos and are standing more erect that usual (24" tall). Tell me what you think. Thanks!!
