ok then. I'm gonna try to return the book tomorrow, before i go by her house. Thanks for the inspiration.

Hey all. I know this topic has nothing to do with chickens, but i need to know whether anyone out there has a solution for me. Ok. Here goes. I've got this friend who's birthday is tomorrow, so i decided to get her a $80 book. When i got home, I took of the plastic wrapping to take of the...

Kays. Thanks.

Hey all! My chick turned out all right. Another little one hatched while i was at school. No help. I feel pretty happy right now. New question though. I have 3 chicks now and if i put them in the same basket, the biggest tries to peck the middle aged one, and the middle one tries to peck the...

My temperature stayed at an average of 100 degrees F. Lowest being 98 and highest being 104. I don't think that the chick would have been able to hatch, seeing as even we had a bit of a problem breaking the membrane.

Hi all. My little chickens are dues to hatch on the 21st. However, one of them cracked its little shell today. 3 days early! Does anyone know what the effects will be, or what causes this? ps. My humidity was pretty low, at only 40% and the chick was unable to get out by itself, so we helped it...

Thanks. I'll try the sponges.

Its still a bit of a problem for me, as mine is a home built incubator. I dont have anywhere to put the water or a tank or anything.

hopefully we'll get a reply soon enough.

I've got a bator with quite a number of eggs inside, due to hatch on the coming friday, Feb 20th. The problem is, lately my humidity has gone to 40% and even dropping to as low as 34% yesterday! I have water containers all over the bator floor next to the eggs and yet, my humidity refuse to...

Thanks for all the responds guys! I really appreciate it. Like.. MASSIVELY!

My little peepers hatched just two days ago. I'm really excited since this is my first brood. My only problem now is, since my chicks are two days old, Can anywone tell me what kind of behaviour to expect from my chicks? Also, my bigger problem is that i was wondering if they know how to drink...

Haha. thanks.

But wouldnt the chicks in the nest die between the time the eggs are laid and the time when the hen decides to sit on them?

haha. I'll be sure to remember that. How strong a floodlight do you all suggest?

Thanks alot. Will try to make one following your description. I just pray i dont forget my eggs are sitting there.

I've got these chickens, and recently, one of them laid up to 14 eggs in her next. However, she did not bother sitting on them. Does anyone know what's happening?

Thank for the super fast reply. Solved my main problems.

My father owns a farm and has some chickens on it. His chickens started laying eggs about a month ago. There is only one rooster in the pen. We recently started incubating eggs and have a good temperature and humidity on the bator. However, we weren't really sure about the hatching period...
