Yes I want to bring them in a coup. Just wondering if the babies would be fine to just add in with the 3 month old ones and they would get along ok.

So they would be fine to ad into the coup with my 3 month old chickens? They won’t attack each other?

They are not in a coup at the moment. She had them in the field beside the shop. No they don’t at the moment because I didn’t know they were going to be coming lol.

hello everyone. I have a question. I’ve got 2 coops on the property. One has all my layers that range from 2 years to 5 years in age. I decided to add to them this year so built another coop to raise a new batch till they are old enough to get along with the older hens. Now I noticed a couple...

. Here's mine that hatched about 3 1/2 weeks ago. Some am. And some polish/am

Hello everyone. So I recently hatched some chicks. One of them has scissor beak. It started off with just a little bit. But seems to be getting worse. Is there anything I can do to help fix it? Thanks [/IMG]

Yup she does everything normal. Just always breathing a lot faster then the rest

Maybe. Thanks for your help though

She has pretty much been breathing like this since the get go. Moves around and does everything like the rest of them and is growing good. Just makes me a little worried.

. That's the only picture I have of the brooder at the moment. But it's about 4'x6'. And heat is only on one side so they have lots of room to get away from it. I keep it pretty clean for them. I will try and get a picture of the beak tomorrow.

Hello everyone. So I have some new chicks (almost 3weeks old). One of them seems to breath really fast and heavy all the time. What could this mean? I also have one that's beak doesn't quite match up. Bottom is shifter out a bit. The chick is a good size and putting on weight so don't think it's...

Well here's the results. I started with 32 eggs. Day 10 candle found 4 that weren't growing. Shut the incubator off today on day 24 and have 8 that didn't hatch. So about a 66% hatch. Guess not bad for first time with travelled eggs

Yes mine was the same but my humidity was off by about 6. I also found it hard to get to temp so I put it in the styrofoam it was shipped it and worked much better. But I'm in Canada and it's winter time lol. Good luck and let me know how yours goes

Yes I've taken 16 out 20 have hatched plus this one that still trying

HELP!!!! So it's been going ok but I just lost a chick. Peeped last night so I left it still nothing more this afternoon and now it's dead. I have one more that's been about the same time. It's still moving and chirping though. But don't want to loose it as well. What should I do?

Haha yes sorry was getting ahead of my self there. Yes the brooder is all set up heat lamp has been on for a day warming up. Hoping they all hatch before I open the bator to get the couple that hatched last night out

Ok thanks. Ya I haven't opened the brooder up I read that part to leave them at least a day. And I had the humidity around 65 and it's now shot up to about 76-77. Thanks for the info. This is all new and I'm liking it so far

Is it normal for the humidity to rise so much when they hatch? It's gone up about 11%

I put 2 dozen am in and 1 dozen mix of polish and am. I had 5 am not even start to develop. Last time I looked I had about 6 or 7 eggs with a little chip out of them. This one is pushing them all over the place though is that going to be a problem?
