    Advice welcome

    Yes they were all fertilized. I candled the lighter ones and they were definitely developing. I had 18 out of 22 hatch! So I was worrying for nothing. I’ve just never seen them look partially wet before.

    Advice welcome

    I’m using a Nurture Right 360 and eggs are on day 20 today. I am doing a dry hatch and locked down at day 18. I added water to bring humidity up to 60 and I noticed on day 19 the eggs looked half wet. I don’t see any wiggling around and don’t hear any noise. The temp stayed around 99.5 for the...

    Broody hen off eggs

    Ok so I just locked momma and all the babies in the nesting box and put the egg under her. She seems happy and taking care of them all so hopefully I’ll have the final hatched chick in the morning!

    Broody hen off eggs

    Ok. Should I help the piping chick hatch since there’s no humidity or just leave it and see how it does? I’m scared the membrane will shrink wrap it.

    Broody hen off eggs

    So a hen hatched 9 chicks under the shed without me knowing. I candled the rest of the eggs and put three I thought might still be viable back under her. This morning she was off the nest with her 9 chicks. Surprisingly one egg piped! Then another one unzipped. I was at work so I told my...

    Day 22 of broody hen

    My broody is sitting on three eggs. Today is day 22. One hatched on day 20. Don't see any pips on the other two, however I haven't inspected them totally because I don't want to disrupt the mom. She is in a nesting box so I was hoping all would hatch around the same time so I could move them to...

    When do I start the 21 day countdown?

    I put some eggs under my broody hen. It's getting late in the day, so do I count today as day 1? Or tomorrow since she will be sitting on them for a full 24 hours?

    First time broody!

    Broody hen was sitting in the popular nesting box. I decided to let her hatch some. I moved her to the "safe spot" last night and put fake eggs under her to make sure she would still sit. I checked on her before work and she was pacing around. 4 hours later hubby sends me pic, she's still not on...

    Chicken poop question

    Thank you. It's hard to tell if it looks similar to the normal or the abnormal. It looked kind of like an abnormal one but I don't know if her description is above or below the pic.

    Poultry lice

    So I checked them yesterday and all were clear except two. One had the eggs still all over near her vent and another one just had a few. Does the permethrin 10 kill the eggs too? Will they just fall off? I didn't see any moving bugs.

    Chicken poop question

    Okay so I have 13 hens and I always notice a variation of poops. Most I don't worry about, but the watery ones and the runny ones worry me. I do not see any worms so I don't necessarily want to just worm them. I had been feeding lettuce and cabbage so I thought maybe the extra water was the...
