    Black dry rooster comb

    My rooster had some frostbite plus some fowl pox a while back. Now it looks like this. Is this just really bad frostbite or really bad pox? Anyone know what I can do for him?

    Horsenettle

    Not a predetor or pest but potential danger to flock... I just found out that a plant we have a lot of around here is horsenettle and extremely poisonous. Will chickens instinctively leave it alone? I'm going to have to try to get rid of it because I have a toddler who likes to put everything in...

    Using a turner

    I am using an egg turner. I read something the other day that said to keep the pointed side of the egg down. So would I need to put them wide side up in the trays? I haven't seen any more information on this. Thanks!

    Digital or glass thermometer?

    I just set up my LG incubator the other day and had to go get a hygrometer. Wished I'd planned ahead and got the one on amazon with a built in hygrometer for only $48! Anyway, the hygrometer (digital) is also a thermometer and the temp it reads is a whole 3 degrees off from the glass thermometer...

    In over my head?

    Hi. :) I live on a few acres, my toddle loves animals and we eat a lot of eggs, so it makes sense to get chickens right? Haha. So I just started my incubator with hatching eggs yesterday. I thought I'd researched well but as I get into it I just keep finding more things I need to figure out. :)...
