I want to thank everyone for your passionate suggestions as what to do with my aggressive rooster. As it turns out, the bucket to the side of his head must have worked. He wants nothing to do with me any more and gives me a wide birth. Although, I would not recommend the bucket method. Thank...

I have a question and a confession. I have a beautiful Andelusian rooster (Cortez) that I adore. He has been great, but yesterday he attacked me while I was feeding them. I stood my ground and walked him out of the coop and into the run. Today he did it again and out of just reaction I hit him...

OK. Got to be worth a shot.

it has been between 50-60%

Help! I have eggs that were due to hatch yesterday and still nothing. Candled 3 and the look good but not 1 pip out of 42 eggs. Temp is good. I am super confused!!!

Thank you. I was not aware of Kansas Poultry Swap. I got on that. I don't need the BCM eggs right away but I would like to find a source in the North East Kansas areas.

Anybody have black copper Maran eggs for incubating? I live in Marysville and would prefer to pick them up to avoid freezing. I am willing to travel up to 100 miles.

I have 16 hens, 1 rooster and love them.

I had an issue like this. I tried a trail camera but could not get a photo of the culpret in the act. In despiration I poked holes in each end of an egg and blew out the inside. Then I put hot candle wax on one end and filled the egg with bright blue latex craft paint. I sealed the other...

Just an update. The incubator jumped to 106 during lockdown and cooked all but 2 chicks as they were pipping and hatching. I called little giant and told them about what their product had done. I got no satisfaction from customer service. She transferred me to the engineer, got voicemail and he...

Chickencanoe & Chicken danz, you both may be on to something. First feed... Oats and sunflower seed (black oil) are just 10% of mix. Kind of a treat for them. Corn is the main ingredient then soy meal. Poltry supplement is added that has minerals, proteins, and other stuff. Also oyster shell is...

How old are they? What is the protein content of their feed? What other things are they fed besides chicken feed? She is a 7 month old pullet. The one I think was attacking her is a 2 year old hen. I have my feed made 16-18% protein corn/soy meal/poltry mix/ oats & sunflower seed.

I can put he in a cage in the coop for a while. Any idea why I had this problem in the first place?

Holy cow! out of curiosity I looked up those Cemani chickens. They don't even look real!

I had a barred rock pullet that for some reason was being picked on. She had a bloody sore on her neck so I got her out of the coop and she healed uppretty good anyidea if and when she can be put back?

Very nice! Some great innovation. I may use some of your ideas on my next coop.

Thank you so much.

Is there a digital thermometer/hydrometer that I can buy that is accurate?

Thanks I bumped it up to 101 and it seems better. I have had eggs in there for 4 days, are they lost?

I got a new Little Giant incubator. It has the fan and digital temp controls. I am using it for the first time and the digital temp is saying 99.5 but the manual thermomiter inside reads around 97. Then when I put a digital probe thermomiter in the air holes I get a range of 96-103. What the...
