UPDATE: We had an extended power failure on day 18 and I lost them all. I will be doing another set of babies in about a month. The girls have just started a spring molt, so I'm going to wait a bit before we try again. If I can figure out how to delete this post, I will take it down...

Mine aren't dirty either. .I can't free range because I can't separate from my other flock, but they have a large covered run and a movable tractor (dog kennel). I have to rake the run 2 x a day. I can't imagine not cleaning everyday. But I also rake out the big girls run daily too. I think a...

Hi, I have the same problem. .. but I have one real active, strong chick, picking at a pipped egg. Enough that the tiny hole filled with blood. Then it got even more aggressive with the hole. Hated to open the bator, but I made an executive decision on the spot and took it out. It's only 7...

My girls all passed recently. Now, the male just circles the house and sits at the front door. He doesnt hang with the hens and doesn't go out to forrage in our pasture and woods like before. i feel so sorry for him. Its too late for me to bring any females... i dont know what to do with this...

This has got to be the biggest egg I have ever seen. I think I saw her smoking a cigarette on her way out of the coop! How do I add the picture??? Its in my gallery. :rolleyes:
