    Eye Injury

    Maybe if the rooster lets you (best time would be at night while he's sleepy) you could try to open the eye to see if there is a foreign object still in there and try to take it out?

    Eye Injury

    I don't know. Probebly try to keep the area around it clean? I would clean the area with cotton dipped in chamomile tea. You could even just use the teabag to squeeze tea into and around his eye.

    Does 21 days include the day the eggs were set?

    Hi! I have never hatched out chicks before or had a sitting hen so I'm not sure when the eggs should be hatching. My bantam hen decided to start sitting so I took her inside the house and let her sit on some eggs in a cardboard box. I gave her three eggs from larger hens (all different kinds)...

    Where can I get bantam egg cartons?

    I have been looking for egg cartons to sell my bantam chicken eggs in, and can't seem to find any for sale anywhere. Does anyone know of a place I can order them from? I have seen quail egg cartons. Would bantam chicken eggs fit in these? Thanks!
