Thank you for the information! And it was a blue copper Marans rooster over black and blue copper Marans.

@eldonrgv I really like this experiment. I'm using pure breeds and going to report my total weights at the end

These are pics of the BCM Roosters.

Hey guys, thanks for the feedback and I finally figured out how to post in the correct area. If you would like, I have a more detailed version that I posted in the meat bird ETC section. Here's the link...

Hi, i hatch chicks. Often times towards the end of the chicks i straight run and sell, they become the age where you can sex them. As you know, not as many people are interested in roosters, so i end up with extra roosters. I have Black and Blue Copper Maran, Plymouth Barred Rock, Buff...

For some reason the only forum I can start is this one.. It never allows me to start anywhere else. But thank you guys!

Hi, I am raising Plymouth Barred Rock, Buff Orpington and Black Copper Marans. We have extra roosters from the sexed chicks we have sold. I was wondering what week most of you would recommend butchering the roosters. I was think 19. I saw somewhere else that at 20 weeks they begin slowing down...

I didn't, I don't know how

Update: I candles the eggs and almost all of the two dozen I am doing are developing great. I turned the heat up to about an average of 101. The humidity reads like 60% but they are developing great, so maybe that's the humidity for this incubator.

I've butchered chickens about 4 different times. Ive been trying different methods. I recemtly have been shooting them in the head with a pellet gun. I would like to get some tips on other ideas of killing the chickens and also on different tips you have on butchering!

I thought it was 55% on the first 18 days and 80 on the last three

Hi, I just ordered an incubator, the temp fluctuates between 99.3F and 100.8F. The humidity fluctuates between 57%-62%. I am doing this to sell organic chicks and to keep some for myself. I woulf like some feedback on incubating since thisbis my first time doing this.

Thanks!!

So, I just got an incubator, its digital, and shows temp, turns eggs every other hour, counts days, and humidity. The temp fluctuates between 99.3F-100.8F the humidity seems to fluctuate between 55%-62%. If I were to add eggs, do you think these temps and humidity levels are ideal?

Thanks Mrs.K! And I am not killing her, but I do plan on selling her.that's why I want her to be healthy and look good.

Awesome! Thanks FoodFreedomNow

Thanks EggSighted

I have a hen that is molting, kind of scrawny and is being picked on. I separated her and would like to find an organic/natural way to help repair feather loss and molting. Comments and advise would be appreciated.

Thanks everyone! For some reason, I just got all of the messages
