    Egg turner help

    Yes. I just got the ones they sell at Tractor Supply, or any other farm supply store. I drilled a hole in one side big enough to fit the plug through and sealed off the excess space with bubble wrap. It works great.

    Coronation Sussex Thread!

    Probably true isn't it? I do know of rare chicken eggs that aren't shipped that will lend the same results so it's a mystery to me. :/

    Coronation Sussex Thread!

    Anyone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe if there is too much inbreeding the hatch rate drops. It's important to have genetic diversity within. This can take a huge effort being that this breed is so rare in the US. I hope it works out for you!

    How long after switching roosters

    Is it safe to assume the hatching eggs that come 10 days afterwards are ONLY from the old rooster? Even though the new rooster has been on her from the beginning? I just need to know so I know I can sell those eggs as pure. (The old rooster is the same breed, I'm switching a hen to the new...

    How Long from mating to fertile egg?

    Since I can't find the info, I'm wondering what your expertise thinks about this: I have a hen who has always been extremely fertilized by her rooster. Just yesterday I put her in another pen with a new rooster to start an olive egger project. The new maran rooster mounted her immediately, and...

    Janoel 48 auto incubator vs hova-bator ??

    Just curious when you mentioned the humidity margin being inaccurate by 10%, did you mean it being higher than reading on the bator, or lower than on the bator?
