Well I have two separate farm steads and the chickens aren't allowed to roam but the problem with guinea fowl wasn't the hawks but the coons. I got wiped out a few years ago when they were only a couple weeks old - darn coons jumped off a tree branch about 3 feet on the roof, managed to get in...

So Murry McMurray Hatcher disappointed me for the very first time. Back in March we ordered 30 guniea fowl from them and then we got notified that due to less than average hatch rates they would be unable to fill my order. My place is massively over-run with ticks and bugs - i'm looking for...

Ive actually been looking for a nice mix of guineas and heritage turkeys :-) I most certainly will look you up.

Well after horrible hatch results running a Farm Innovators Pro Series 4250 I built my own and we are now on day #1. Heat and humidity are holding ROCK SOLID! I see a fantastic hatch rate around the corner! 12 Silkies, 12 Bantams, 12 Easter Eggers 12 Barnyard Open Mix Room for 4 egg...

Well let's get this party started again. Were currently from Edgeley but just bought a ranch just North of Hillsboro. We are currently hatching fools looking for local hatching eggs. Once established we will share the wealth!

My first hatch attempt and I finally have a single pip, and only one chirp but sounds like a distressed chirp. Here is hoping some random barnyard chics hatch! This is the last one I thought would hatch as the egg had hard poop we couldnt get off stuck to the egg.

Actually they will have 10 acres to roam all they want and yes they will be free range. We do intend on coop training them for nights. This farm has been abandoned for 10 years lots of bugs and ticks to keep them busy!

Right now we have 14 straight run Rhode Island Reds is all. 13 died in transit or within first 24 hours due to rough handling.

We live in North Dakota in an area with extreme winds (reason I guess we were the first wind farm in the state) I need help with breeds. Is the Pearl the only cold hardy variety? They will have a 4 x 8 enclosed coop available to them year around. Thanks for the feedback!

Ventilation is one of my many flaws! I had to install a ridge cap vent aa I didn't take into consideration how sealed up it would be. Its actually 4 feet wide x 8 feet long x 42" tall. I have room for either 8 large nesting boxes or 16 that are 12" wide. I drug my feet and the brooder was...

So I wanted to build a chicken coop that was both functional and one that would last well needless to say throughout the entire construction process I found many things that I would do different but I suppose that's with just about every design. Once done this Coupe is designed to be elevated...

Very informative thank you

Greetings from frigid North Dakota. My daughter has taken an interest in hatching her own eggs so we purchased a Farm Innovators Pro Series 4250 (Biggest mistake made yet). We are working on now in Lockdown trying to maintain temperature and humidity. 32 of the 36 were fertile and as of...

I have a few comments on the 4250 that may help out. First off run it for a few days, with the egg turner in and running. Glue the plastic piece of the temp. Probe to a block of wood and move it from egg slot to egg slot every half an hour until the temp on digital display matches your...
