Two out the Super Blue Egg layer and the Dominique. The Ameriflower has pipped and is rocking and rolling, Pretty sure the Blue-sex link and the BCM have died though, the five speckled Sussex eggs aren't technically due till Thursday since I put them in a day later, so I'm not worried about them...
Ignore potato quality photo. I went to bed 5 hrs ago with just a small pip in the Dominique egg, I wake up with a fluffy baby in the incubator. Didn't think it would hatch that quickly.
We lost power last night for several hours the eggs were cold when we came home and found them. I put my Dominique egg in my bra while I made a hot water bag to put the eggs under to try to warm the back up. They went back in the incubator once the power went on but by that time the house was in...
That's wonderful that your neighbor offered. Honestly this is not the first run in with these dogs. This fall they came into my yard and picked a fight with my dog who ended up with torn pads and she just turned her back and walked her dogs back home while I was trying to see where my dog was...
I candled for day 7 today, I think my Carolina Sex Link egg isn't fertile, it hasn't developed from what I can tell, how long should I wait to see any changes?

Shockingly, she was not amused that her son was the one that helped a friend butcher...
I have two four year old barn cats that have hunted their entire life. I recently had to move my chickens to the barn due to a pack of dogs tearing their runs up and killing 3. I have 13 9 week old pullets, 3 year old hens, and a year old rooster that took on one dog. The cats don't even look at...
No she hasn't even come to speak to me about the incident. All the information I've received is from the Animal Control officer assigned to the case. Officer G is great though and already offered to testify in civil court about the case if I were to choose. He came out to take pictures of the...
I'm on day 5 of my first hatch ever! I lost my favorite Dominique hen to a mystery illness at less than a year old. So of course I'm going to hatch her last egg.
I bought a Brinsea Eco and some shipped eggs, 5 speckled Sussex, a black copper maran, a super blue egg layer, and ameriflower, and...
