    What's the likelihood they'll hatch? EMERGENCY ON POST #5!!!

    Okay, thanks. ^_^ No I get I messed up. I went against everything I have read. The hen in question is doing her job fine. She's a sweet bird who loves people and is the top girl in my flock. I can only hope the chick hatches and she accepts it, but it all seems to be going alright. I...

    What's the likelihood they'll hatch? EMERGENCY ON POST #5!!!

    HELPP!!!! So my mom had me open the eggs. One was still alive. I didn't hurt it, I cracked the egg along the top the way the chick would, then I took a small bit of shell way so I could see if it moved. It did move. ... By my own miscalculation I punctured the inner lining. Should I...

    Any idea why they are so late? They all seem undamaged, they just aren't hatching for whatever reason.

    I know these suck, it's still light here and I don't want to take them out for very long. The first and last are the newest eggs, the middle is the one who's on day 21.

    What's the likelihood they'll hatch? EMERGENCY ON POST #5!!!

    So heres my situation: I had a broody hen (GLW), and I thought little chicks with a mama would be cute. I had plenty of room so I asked a friend for three hatching eggs. She gave me a Samon F X Dark cornish, Brama X Dark Cornish and an UNKNOWN egg. I stuck e'm under the hen and started the...

    Brood hen and store bought chicks?

    I wish I had an experienced mother, but the only one I have just started molting. Also, the GLW just started pulling out all of her fluffy feathers and putting them in the box... I thought that took place later in the broody stage.

    Brood hen and store bought chicks?

    I DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS THE RIGHT PLACE FOR THIS, PLEASE FORGIVE ME IF IT ISN'T. Day before yesterday I got one dozen day old chicks from Dick Horsman. They all arrived unharmed and adorable. They are set up in a indoor brooder with food, water, and a heat lamp. They day before they...

    Greasy head and dripping face.

    Yes.. turns out I had a three gallon jug of corn oil that rupshered. The chickens ate and drank the oil and it covered their heads and necks as they slashed it about. Everyone turned out fine, although I got extra shiny eggs for the next few days. Sorry for the false alarm guys, but...

    Marans Thread - breed discussion & pictures are welcome!

    We really are pretty new to anything show quality. (I'm the friend) Do you have any suggestions? We thought about a solid color cochin because it would be easier to breed true. Our biggest problem has been finding truly show quality birds, most owners seem to think any 'pretty' bird is show...

    Review by '' on item 'Cayuga'

    I like my Cayuga quite a bit. She is 14 weeks and loves to play and splash in the water. I have been told that Cayugas are less friendly toward people but she is by far the cuddliest of my ducks.

    Greasy head and dripping face.

    Yesterday I noted that my New jersey giant pullet had what looked like oil on the back of her head. It looked like someone had greased her feathers down back there. Before I put them to bed I also noted that her face was dripping wet and her comb and wattles had taken on and extremely bright...

    What breed are these?

    They look like EE X Jersey Giant to me. But there's a lot they could be. Do they have fluffy feat?

    4 month old easter egger

    100% rooster. He might not be displaying his maleness because the other rooster is so dominate.
