I have 4 hens that are wheezing and gurgling. There were 6 but 2 have died. What could the problem be and how do I care for them to get them well? They are still laying eggs because I am getting the same amount of eggs every day, minus the eggs from the 2 hens that have died. If they have an...

My silkie roo started curling his neck under his body and walking backwards. He seems awfully stressed and looses his ballance at times. He ends up on his back kicking his legs frantically. He will act normal, eat, drink and walk around but then all of a sudden start acting crazy again. Can...

I received 14 duck eggs from a friend to put in my incubator. He did not know what breed these eggs came from. He has several breeds running around on his farm and told me that he usually doesn't pay attention to the eggs they lay and doesn't even look for their nests. He found this nest of 14...

I joined a couple of weeks ago but I'm just now getting around to saying hello. Been too busy reading all the great posts from everyone and buying eggs for my incubators from various members. So far I have bought 17 turkey eggs, (3 different breeds) and 31 ringneck pheasant eggs, (3 different...

Could not use the auto turner for turkey or duck eggs because the tops of the eggs would hit the heating element. So, I made an extention ring out of styrofoam to make the top of the incubator (which the heating element is attached to) sit 3 inches higher. So far it is holding a steady heat at...
