    need a setter what about my muscovy

    A friend of mine has Muscovies and he had a chicken laying in the same nest as the muscovy. He sorted out the chicken eggs the best he could, but she still hatched one chick (he took it away so she wouldn't stop sitting on her own eggs). I would think it should work fine.

    Hatch day and i already have one hatched. It hatched this morning around 8:00. Three more are pipped and wiggling. I am having some trouble keeping the humidity up, if any one has advise on that it would be nice. Also how long do you have to leave the chicks in the incubator?

    Perhaps you could put the sponge in a shallow pan of water, so that the sponge can keep taking up moisture? I have a still air incubator that has a little water tray in the bottom that I have been keeping full that has kept humidity around 45-50% the whole time. I am having trouble getting...

    Are you Thinking of putting your 2-3 week old chicks in their coop?

    Put my three bantam chicks out in there coop and they love how much room they have, and I love how much less cleaning i have to do. Soon I hope to put my standered size three week old speckled sussex chicks out with them. I am afraid that the would get picked on though.
