attaching pen is several juvy calls from 4months to almost 2 mnths. been in pen for at least two weeks...
hey
I over the last couple weeks I have lost several of my old hens.
I am pretty sure I do not have anything. Nobody looks sick.
One minute they are fine the next I have seen it first hand they vomit and die. Just like that. These are health birds. Not skinny. Not egg bound. Dont Look...
I also wanted to share this with everyone and I don't know if anyone has talked about this before most likely.
I usually do incubate chickens, have tried calls before and had only one hatch.
My son has gotten into calls so we have gotten several. That is why I let them sit on there own...
Were to begin....
Here is one of our grays in here lovely orange bucket! With her first two that were born last Wednesday.
Now mind you in the northeast we also had the Tropical Storm and we had 6in of rain in my area. My calls are in a pen outside.
So when I went out Friday morning and...
Hey guys boy I have been so busy looks like I missed some... I have lots of new photo's and news.
Will try and post later.
I saw this and wanted to let you know that I had one hen who was sitting and two calls hatched. Mom was off the nest the following day of them hatching and there was...
Had gotten some tolbult hatching eggs. I figured the best way was under one of my sons silkies. She was already broody but I figured they should have hatched end of last week the latest. Left her sitting and when I went out this morning to feed everyone I noticed she had an emtpy shell next...
Can you post some picture's?
Also what color pairs do you have?
If paying for shipping do we have to order boxes and have them sent or do you have boxes?
Show quality from what lines or what shows?
Thanks!
Sorry for all the questions
Were is the form for group theropy! Chickens are an addiction but I think its the best one! Agree with you totally
:barnie I need to step away from this thread! I've been wanting some Olive Eggers, but I just spent all my chicken cash on the Ameraucanas! I don't think I'll have the incubator...
Thanks everyone!
I am so excited they are just so cute.
Mom is doing a really good job with taking care of them. Don't know if you can tell from the pictures but I sectioned her off from the rest of the flock so they would leave her alone.
Not sure when I might take them away from mom to...
So I went out and found that out of the eleven eggs that my wonderful call was sitting on that not a single one had not hatched!
WOW!
Took some pictures for everyone to see!
Thanks will keep you in mind.
I have another hen who also looks just like her and below is the drake I have that I am going to use and mate them but she is also sitting.
Will see what happens and if I can get her back laying soon with the drake then I will put the eggs up. Don't know though.
