um.............hello??? anyone there??

ive had my incubator go up to 110 and 3 out of 20 survived, it think you have a good chance. keep us updated. ~ mama bird ~

I would separate them, the girls will take the habbits of the boys. I would get rid of the roosters as soon as possible, and only keep one, ( if you really want one) because when they get older they will try to kill eachother, especially if there aggressive now. Hold the one rooster after you...

so how is it going did it make it?

if its not dislocated, you could always try putting a splint on it. If i was in your position i would attempt to make a carrage thing. Do you know the ones the dogs ride in when they break there legs, where its like a square with 4 wheels and you set the duck in on top of the cloth that is cover...

Yes! that would be fine. It should take at least 4 days, in some cases its taken as long as 10 days. How is the chick now? its not too big of a bump is it? because if its half the size of a penny i dont think you need to put anything on it unless its starting to leak. hope this helps, have a...

thanxs everyone, zimmy srry i meant, interfeare/ like to stop something from happening, like......." your dog inerfeared with the dinner you were having last night, by eating the turkey before anyone had any" ( oh my gosh im so bad at spelling!)

It's the yolk sac. the chick has not fully absorbed it yet. check above the red bump, do you see the vent(pooper) of the chick? If so then this confirms that the bump blow it is the yolk sac not fully absorbed.On the bump put a band aid over the red bump or something because if this sac...

OK, my chickens lay eggs a couple of times every few months or so. And i was wondering if anyone has tried incubating these? would two chicks hatch. or would two chicks start developing and then die because of each other interfering with the other? thanx -mama bird-

thankyou all, you guys were a very big help!

ok, i have 18 mallard duck eggs and have no idea if they hatch the same days of a chicken or what? do i have to put water in the bator? ( its a atomatic fan) and if so when and how much? ANY advice would be greatly appreciated! thankyou ~Mama Bird~

i have had many chicks hatch with this. OUt of 26 (yes ive kept a tally) only one ive been succesful of saving. Usually the yolk sac just breaks and the chick imidatly dies. With the one i saved i put the chick upside down and stuffed it back in with a wet cloth.*( all the other chicks didnt...

im sorry to tell you that i dont really know much about the humidity, but i have always just dry-hatched and its all turned out better for me than the water in the bator thing. so i dont think it would have hurt them much. hope this gives a little info. have a good hatch. -mama bird-

thanks!

thanks, is there a specific hen that is know for good hormones for " go broody?" thanx mama bird:) thats a great pic of your chicken mama! i wish some of mine would be that broody all the time!

the ones that i hatched out from safeway said that they were fertile eggs on the box. But i just found out today from a friend that all boxes that arent marked fertile or non-fertile are all fertile. only the boxes that are specifically marked non-fertile are fertile. so wether the box says...
