    Polish Cross Babies - What Sex Are They?!?!

    I really need #1 to be a female. It is one of the sweetest ones and loves to be held. I'll also be so sad if not one of my white ones ends up being a girl.

    Polish Cross Babies - What Sex Are They?!?!

    I hatched some Polish cross chicks a little over a month ago and I need help determining their sex. I have a feeling #2, 5, and 7 are males but I am hoping I am wrong. #2 because it is just getting more red in the comb and 5 & 7 because their feathers are developing more slowly. They are all...

    How to Grow a Blueberry Bush

    I have 8 blueberry bushes and got zero blueberries last year because wildlife ate them all. I bought netting so I hope that helps this summer.

    I Feel Like I'm Going Crazy

    An update- as of now, I'm up to 19 hatched babies with two in the incubator rocking like crazy- I have 10 eggs in the incubator left all together. I had to throw out 5 eggs as they stopped developing. Let's see how the rest of this week goes!

    I Feel Like I'm Going Crazy

    We have a hatch! This is a Barred rock X Polish. Is it okay that the humidity jumped to 76%? I definitely don't want it that high due to my staggered eggs but I have 10 other current pips!!!

    I Feel Like I'm Going Crazy

    So my mom just got home from work and texted me the current #'s. The temp seems to be fluctuating between 99 and 102. It was 100 when I left this morning and now it's reading 101.5. Is that too high? My humidity is at 65% which I am happy with.

    I Feel Like I'm Going Crazy

    Haha no memorable chicken dreams YET! I'm having my mom call me as soon as she gets home to tell me the levels since I'll be in the office for another 6+ hours . My humidity was 64% when I left the house. As far as my staggered hatches go- Some eggs were added a day after the first set and some...

    I Feel Like I'm Going Crazy

    I just locked down my second (the first had to be discarded at day 8 due to a huge prolonged temperature spike) batch of eggs and since day one, these chickies are all I can think about. I am constantly checking the temp and humidity. While I'm away at work for up to 12 hours a day, I call my...

    Major Over-heat of eggs

    I had just candled all of my 5-6 day old eggs and removed the ones that weren't developing and because I was lifting the lid, I turned the heater back on to compensate.... Well, I forgot to turn the heater off on my incubator and the temp got up to 120 degrees. It is possible that it was like...
