This adorable chick was born on 9/29 in the morning. I know they sometimes take half the day to 'dry out' but this chick is completely fluffy....except for his head. It still looks all wet. Any ideas? Here's a link....he is the one on the bottom right. Sorry, it's the best picture I've...

Thanks for the input guys!

Do you guys find that it's worth it ($ savings wise) to raise them for meat? Does it pan out after buying feed?

Do you take them to someone or do it yourselves?

Curious about this myself...

Thanks for your suggestions. I just hope my newest babe makes it!

I'm curious, do y'all think it was starting to 'rot' in there? With all the foul smelling gunk I cleaned off of it?

She or he has been trying to hatch for 3 days and I finally decided to intervene this morning. I noticed a lot of gunk that I had to clean off of the chick w/ a q-tip while I was helping.....it smelled bad, real bad. She's breathing, but not trying to get up just laying there....I put her back...

Just wanted to say a quick hey and let y'all know I'm a newbie on board! I have 2) New England Red Hens , 2) Old English Game Hens, 1) Black Plymouth Rock rooster, 7) biddies and 6) incubating. I'm loving expanding my little chicken family.

Would like to get these in the mail in the morning. My rooster is a Black Plymouth Rock. Will sell for $17 including shipping.

I have some Old English Game Hen + Black Plymouth Rock Rooster eggs and also some New England Red + Black Plymouth Rock Rooster eggs.
