    Ahh hatching on day 18!!

    Thank you! I checked the thermometer and it is roughly 1 degree off but I was keeping it at 99 for the most part. Maybe it is more off than that. It is a still air incubator so the temps vary around the surface and it is tough to decide how to set it. I have spent many hours staring at these...

    Ahh hatching on day 18!!

    Thank you for the help. before I heard any response, I quickly removed the turner and laid them out, opened the vent plugs and added some water. The humidity is 80 percent now and now I have 3 chicks and one peeping! I hope I did not mess up the rest of them too badly. The three seem healthy...

    Ahh hatching on day 18!!

    So I went away for one night and I came home with the intention of taking the egg turner out and increasing the humidity. But when I went to the incubator I found a fully hatched chick and 3 more piping! The humidity was only at 40 percent! This is my first hatch! What do I do? How do I get the...

    Humidity Question

    Thank you so much! I guess I will leave it alone and hope for the best. Kyzerc, I am glad to hear you don't turn yours. That gives me hope. My kids are really excited about this and I would hate to see none turn out. I will candle at 7 days and see what is going on. Right now my humidity is...

    Humidity Question

    Hi I am completely new to incubating. This is my first time and I have researched on the humidity needed and at what time it needs to change to what humidity, but I seem to be finding very different answers. When I set the eggs 24 hours ago, I did so thinking they needed to be at 50-60percent...

    Sneezing Pullet Help needed

    I bought two pullets a week ago and I noticed the Dark Brahma sneezing after a day or so. I thought I would keep my eye on it seeing as I spent all the extra money I had on the two pullets. She has not stopped sneezing and might be sneezing more now. When she sneezes, she shakes her head...

    Can you make a rooster stop crowing?

    Thanks guys! I had him roost in a spot where he could not strech out his head last night and we didn't hear a peep out of him before I left for work this morning at 7am. I guess that is all I can hope for for now. I am just going to take it day by day. Thanks again

    Can you make a rooster stop crowing?

    Well that is what it might come to, but he is still mostly legs and feathers. Plus, heaven help me, I kind of like the guy.

    Can you make a rooster stop crowing?

    I am quite attached to my 4 month old white langshan roo but he has recently started to crow. It is still unperfected and he hasn't yet attempted the early morning crow, but I feel it coming. I live in an area that I can have a rooster but if I get complaints they can make me give him away...

    Possible OH NOO!

    That is another area that I was confused. His coloring didn't seem to be very dark or light to me. Oh I just don't know.

    Possible OH NOO!

    Ok, so I was so excited to finally have a cokoo marans pullet and get those nice dark eggs, but then my little Rosa turned into a Roberto. By the time he was 3 months old he looked completely roo-ish. I was sooooo disappointed and unhappily put an add on Craig's list for him. A nice man came...

    Pics this time!!! What are these?

    I was worried those two might be roos. I was really hoping the Cocko Marans was not a roo because I was really looking foreward to some dark brow eggs and the other Cocko Maran they sent me is in pic #3 and she seems to be a mix of some sort. Any ideas on her breed?

    Pics this time!!! What are these?
