    Chick Water

    Thank you. I have marbles and the jewel stones for aquariums to go in the water dish to make small places for them to drink from so they won't be as likely to drown.

    Fermented feed question

    Update on my fermented feed. I switched to using a larger 1-gallon container and am now using about 1/2 a cup of acv. It's going on 5 days now with no smell.

    My first bator experience

    No doubt about that. I can finally breathe again. My little boy is 3 and I'm so glad he can have this kind of life.

    My first bator experience

    I lived in city limits for a total of 6 months, but had to move back out in the middle of the woods the way I was raised. I saw nothing for me there. Too much noise and distraction. I work at home so I can get away from some of that. Now I can start gardening and raising chickens the way we...

    weather and egg production

    I had five hens all laying when I got them. The weather was in the 70s and 80s at that time, but with the change back to 40s and 50s during the day and 30s and 40s at night they have been laying irregularly. I was getting five a day at first, but now I get one to five a day. When we have had...

    ARKANSAS Chicken or Eggs SWAP

    Nothing specific. I really need something close. With the medical transcription I do I am working 7 days a week every week. It makes it really hard to be able to do anything.

    My first bator experience

    @Bens-Hens, I do not have a hygrometer. I've been reading about them since you mentioned it, and I will be getting one. Thanks everybody. I'm thinking that my second try won't be so frustrating. I really appreciate ALL input whether good or bad so I know.

    Thanks. I'm learning already. At least this was a good hands on learning experience, so it wasn't a complete waste.

    My first bator experience

    When I was growing up we had hens doing all the work. This is the first time I have used a bator. My MIL gave it to me along with instructions on using it, adjusting the temp, turning the eggs, adding water, etc. I was under the assumption that she had actually hatched chicks before from the...

    Fermented feed question

    The lid wasn't airtight. I am wondering about the amount of acv I put in though. I added one teaspoon to a one quart bowl. Maybe it wasn't enough?

    Fermented feed question

    I was wondering if maybe I hadn't added enough acv or something. I only put a teaspoon in a 1 quart bowl.

    Fermented feed question

    The morning after I started the fermentation process it just smelled like wet feed, but the next day it started smelling really bad. Like bad enough that I gagged when I opened the jar and I have a really strong stomach after working in a nursing home for two years. I would really like to...

    Fermented feed question

    I was just about to post on fermented feed. I have been trying the fermented feed exactly as directed on a couple of different websites, but if I don't feed it all on the day after I start it, it goes bad. I made sure that the water was at least an inch above the level of the feed every time...
