    Chicks Intestines are Out?

    Temp Trouble

    i recently bought a little giant incubator, I was reading that the thermometer on it wasn't that accurate, two days after putting eggs in it I bought a hygrometer, and it said it was only at 75 degrees! I've raised the temperature since but will the eggs still develope or are they goners?

    Sevin Dust???

    I have treated my chickens for lice using ash and neem oil for a grand total of three times. And every time still find those little buggers feasting on my poor hens.
