    Mystery of the missing eggs...

    Quote: Very good point... actually one side of this cage does have the smaller 1/2" hardware cloth around the bottom half but think I'll finish covering the entire thing. it might also keep snakes out. I really just wish the girls would let me do the hatching! It's so much simpler that way...

    I have no idea which topic to put this under, so hope this one will do or one of the moderators will put it where it belongs. I have shipped adult chickens, but never chicks. Can someone give me some suggestions or "must-do's" on how to do this properly. I read an article on the Internet...
