    Legbar-Marans cross Olive eggers & barring gene.

    so I crossed my blue marans too x couple cream legbar hens. Hatched these f1 auto sexing eggs & kept some pullets, most looked more like legbars with copper streakage. Now I’ve got a few of them laying, crossed them back to pure blue & splash marans Roos for darker layers. I’ve hatched a few of...

    Niacin supplement - is brewer's yeast same as "instant yeast" ?

    So of course my feed store which I ordered duck starter at said truck came in with no duck starter.....I know they'd be ok on chick starter for a few days but I do have catfish pellets and I was thinking about feeding half and half to come close to a 21% ratio. Going to go by the other feed...

    Eggs need how much oxygen during shipping?

    So I've been shipping some of my hatching eggs and I was curious. I keep tweaking my shipping method. Recently I've done it this way for a little while, 1/2 inch styrofoam "panels" that line the whole box. I believe this in combination with meak's method(bubble wrapping eggs basically)...

    Will shipping cause eggs to become more porous?

    Title says it all. Just wondering. I think I recall eggs will become more porous with age and seeing as how shipping is usually 1-3 days(or longer with delays). I know some can be pretty porous to begin with but in general.

    Pros and Cons of Chicken Tractor Over Raised Beds?

    So I have several chickens now in my barn(about a 30 by 30 ft area) but I have about 3 acres that can be a pain to mow even with a riding mower.

    No pinkish crest or wattles. Will have to look up age but at least 4 mths I believe. Figuring pullet but the frizzle is throwing me off.

    Unfertile Incubated Eggs - Can I feed to dogs?

    What would be the longest an egg can be in the incubator before you wouldn't feed it to a dog? I know I've read of people that will even cook really well and eat 5-6 day incubated eggs that aren't fertile with no issues.....And I also know that 18 day incubated duck eggs are considered a...

    What breed are these 3?

    Probably some type of mix but I'm curious what you all think. I will try to get better, clearer pictures with my digital camera(so I can ask about sex too, they are 8 weeks now).

    Buff Bantam Cochin x Black Frizzle Cochin - What do I get?

    Assuming the black frizzle does not have 2 copies of Frizzle(my 7 week old chicks still have some growing to do and I've got to get pictures to ask opinions on if they are double frizz).
