I've gotten two batches of eggs from mothernaturesdaughter now (first batch was bad post office handling - took five days to arrive). She does excellent packaging and great to deal with. Super clean eggs. Second batch just went in the bator today.

Just asked her and she is going right to Roanoke! Can you email me please with what you have? [email protected] I only need girls as I've got 12 handsome young boys. Thanks!

Hey I'm looking to add a few more swedish and I've got a transporter that could haul for me back to Wisconsin. She will be going thru Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Vermont, down to Virginia and back to WI. Does anyone have a few pellets you could send with her or straight run chicks? My...

No not a thing scared him. Just me walking around doing normal chores. I was wrong and he's only 12 weeks old. When I was rounding up the 7 younger birds to lock them up for the night he tried to peck me each time I put one in the pen. I'm thinking he is just a jerk. He came from 30 ebay eggs...

Ok SFH gurus, it is not normal for an SFH cockerel about 14 weeks to be aggressive, as in suddenly running at me and even grabbing my leg once? He was from a different breeder so was going to keep him but he may meet his maker tonite.

Carolynm, Google fishers farm poultry. Dale is wonderful and just sent my second batch of chicks today!

Ok I think I may try hatching SFH one more time. Who here sells eggs? Needs to be from a healthy flock with no respiratory diseases (had to cull my flock 2x due to dishonest people). I'm in WI so will need shipped. Please email with pics or website that shows your birds to [email protected]

I'm located in WI so no breeders near me aside from a small hatchery with a very bad reputation 2 hrs away. I have no choice but to ship.

Ok I truly believe the fates do not want me to have SFH! I ordered 2 dozen eggs from an eBay person, box arrived with eggs smashed, ones I cleaned and incubated started but died by 5 or so days. Set the dozen she sent me to replace, 2 hatched, one has feathered legs and both started crowing...

Bulldogma thanks so much for the offer. I may take you up on that in a couple months. My heart is not in hatching right now and we are going on a trip in 4 weeks. The chick that did hatch on day 21 after pipping early on 20. Finally took its first steps yesterday. It looks and acts like a...

Sigh....no SFH chicks for me. I give up on hatching the darn things. Out of my current batch of 15 I received, today is day 23 and I only have one handicapped chick that hatched Saturday morning with assistance and it still can not stand up nor move aside from lay on its side and kick its legs...

I'm in WI so could only deal with Our Fly Babies and have heard horrible things and actually I think that's the place we went last spring to pick up some heritage piglets they had for sale and their chickens all just lived in small little pens in their shed, not very nice. So, no choice but to...

Ok, I have a question about Swedish Flowers. Are they a difficult breed to work with as far as breeding/hatching? I've tried two batches now (well, three if you count the first two dozen an ebay person sent me that were poorly packaged and scrambled when I got them, salvaged half but they all...

Ok so run no water in the chanels until day 18 then get it up to 70%? Shall I blot out the water in the channel tonite yet? I'd just filled one up and it's about 40%.

I've got the brinsea eco 20. So now I've got people recommending low humidity and a friend that hatches says 50% then 80 on day 18. ??

They really don't have any other breeds. So I don't know. I'm new to this breed but raise show quality stock in other species of animals so know what to look for, fast learner on right and wrong lol.

Thanks that's what I figured. I'm rather mad at throwing away $100 to get one pure chick and one mutt.

Question for you experienced SFH people that have had chicks. Just had my second every incubator hatch end. Crummy describes that one. Had 3 SFH eggs from eBay seller. They packed them horribly plus the PO dented the box so I opened it to scrambled eggs. Salvaged 20 of them but had to scrub...

Lol yep that's me talking to you via email

Anybody have 12-18 SFH eggs they can ship asap from a healthy flock?
