I have hatched twice in my Brinsea Mini Advance (to the factory settings) and both times I have had to assist with the hatching. The first time I hatched all 4 and the second time all 3 eggs (yesterday). Each time I had one chick that pipped, zipped and hatched perfectly on it's own. The other...

Hi- My disk seems to be positioned properly. I have one empty hole (only have 6 eggs) and it's position does not seem to move at all. I have been hand turning them. I am going to mark them and see if there is any movement. The display is showing "turning" with the rotating "/" symbol. Maybe...

I know this is an old post, but I am questioning if mine are turning? Do the eggs stay in the same place. Mine haven't moved from their original location and I thought the disc would turn. I am manually turning them now. They have only been in for two days.

Another question for you. Awhile back I joined the American Langshan Club, got the patch for my granddaughter's lab coat, received their newsletter, etc. But now, there is another club called "The Langshan Club" that is on Facebook and they seem progressive and have shows listed and display...

Thanks for the advise. I really appreciate it. One thing that I noticed in regards to combs, is that although the standard is very specific I see breeders showing off pictures of their birds and show pictures and I think the combs don't look symmetrical or straight. For example, four points...

Hi BGMatt- It looks like you have a great deal of experience with showing and breeding. I have 9 week old Langshans and out of the 8 chicks I purchased, 6 of them are roosters. I would like to start downsizing them. They are all about the same size, and everything else seems to standard...

That's great to know about the comb color Emount, pretty much hoping that the size didn't matter. :) I guess I am comparing them to my blue pullet who has such a tiny comb and I am now hopeful that maybe my two "long tails" are pullets too. I think we will take them out this weekend and...

Thank you Dirt Farmer. I really thought it would be much easier to sex them with them all being one breed and being able to compare them to each other. All their combs are different and they are in different stages of development. I do think that they are all very upright compared to other...

They are *7 weeks, not seven months!

I am racking my brain trying to figure out the sex of some of these 7 month old chicks. There are 8 Langshans. I can only confirm there is one hen. She is a blue with a very tight comb and no waddles yet (disregard the red dot on her comb, she got pecked) She has a long tail. I also have...

Thanks for replying Dirt Farmer. Good to know that there is nothing here "color wise" that would cause a problem. They are only 3-1/2 weeks old. I'll be patient and check back as they develop more. Just glad I found this thread. Also, I agree with you that the #2 is a pullet now. She was...

Hello- I am a newby here and I am on a quest to breed show quality Langshans. I am from SE Wisconsin and I don't know of anyone locally that breeds them. I am hoping there is some Langshan expert that enjoys doing this sort of thing. Evaluating birds. My grandaughter has been showing in 4H...
