My feed stores just throws everything together and couldn't tell me the breed, most of all they are straight run so you could end up with all roosters. I did this once, now I order from a hatchery and order the different breed and sex I want!!

Did you decide to sell your Tolbunt Polish pair? If so, how much and will you ship them to Kansas? Thank You, Martha

I have a young flock of pullets, I have 16, 2 each of different breeds, except I have 4 RIR. Most have come from show stock I hand picked. I have an order in with a hatchery for more pairs of different breeds of purebred pullets for March. I have been offered my choice of a free rooster, my...

Sorry I have waited so long to get back on here.............NOTHING HATCHED, I left them over 30 days I wonder if I didn't get scammed?? Although I could see stuff inside when candled, I didn't open them before I threw them out. I had opened one that looked weird and it just had lots of dark...

Today is day 23 and NOTHING, I am so disappointed, I had hoped a few baby chicks would hatch out of 26 eggs!!! These were eggs from Ebay, from 2 different farms and not that far away, the eggs got here fast. I am going to leave them in the bator a while longer then I am going to open them up...

Help............... I am new at this, first time, and tomorrow is lock down. Basically that means I quit turning?? Most of the eggs I have in the bator are in paper cartons.........should I leave them??? Will they hatch ok? Do I remove the chicks as they become dry and fluffy?? Can I raise...

I am a newbie. I tried to candle some blue eggs, I saw something different in each one BUT no veining! I am at 76 hours in. One had a bubble that floated around (this is not good??) One looked like a lining around the yolk and one looked like a yolk with a dark small spot??? I had...

Thank you, I guess it is just the luck of the draw and on how they are handled by the post office on their trip.. My eggs traveled from Texas and Oklahoma to Kansas, not to far, cross your fingers. I will try to candle on day 7, not that I know what I am looking at. I see these yellow egg...

Thank you, I bought from reputable top Ebayers. I wondered if I would be able to candle the marans eggs because of the dark brown shell? Theses eggs came packed in an upright position. The other eggs I bought were creme legbars, they were small eggs, packed nice but helter skelter in the...

I have read a lot on here, it seems the hatch rate on Ebay shipped eggs is poor or non existant. Is this true? I bought 26 eggs, two breeds I wanted really bad and am now worried I have wasted my money. I am doing everything right as far as temp, humidity and turning, I did leave half the eggs...

Great job....I love it. What was the plastic box with white material in it? (In the run)

Thank you, that helps me.

I am going to a chicken show tomorrow. I plan to purchase a couple of older pullets of certain breeds to add to my flock. I can tell the age of young/baby birds, but after a year old how would I know? This is my first backyard flock! Thank you

I just read an ad on craigslist the this heartland hatchery is having sales today in Topeka and Emporia, so they are still open. Someone on here mentioned their phone number and it is the same number today as back then :) Just Saying-----

How do I delete...went to wrong thread????

I read somewhere, that they sell fake/porcelan (sp) eggs, that look like real eggs for that reason....to leave in the nest box so the hens will know where to lay!!

I got 3 eggs from 3 chickens....a question, the white egg layer has big eggs the other two chickens have small brown eggs, why small??
