Well...I had 2 chicks hatch today. This first one is perfect as ever. The other one is kinda...well its different. The first one is a mutt, took 23hrs and 45 mins from pip to hatch. The second one is an easter egger and took 30 hrs from pip to hatch. I had to move the first chick because it kept...

Well...I was about ready to turn my incubator off this morning as its day 23 and I've had NOTHING NADDA NOPE! I tried candling but that technique went down the drain when I realized I can't see anyways. So I decided its been long enough so I'll just give up and try again. I unplugged my...

I'm excited but dreading my first hatch too. I'm using a still air HovaBator incubator, just the small model. I have an old house so trying to keep the temp at a steady 100 is hard but it averages 100-102. It has a 'trench' that goes around on the bottom for the water and it goes all the way...

So my EE roo seems to like sitting the nesting box...clucking happily away. He'll sit up and move the hay around, throw it over himself like a hen, squat down and hum and cluckle. Its weird. I've seen him do it 2-3 times now...nobody else I talk to has had that happen! I wish I had pictures for...

Hey everyone, where me and my horse used to live we had 4-5 guinea fowl but never had any problems with them because we got them when they were around a year old...never had any youngins'...until now. I got 2 that were about 2 months old and another one I was given one by a lady that was from...
