    Day 22: Pipped over 24 hrs, but no Zipper

    Hi, First time incubating chicken eggs. So far, I had two that hatched last night and an additional two that are pipped. One has a zipper line and you can see it trying to get out, but seems stuck. The other one’s pip hole hasn’t really gotten bigger. You can see the beak moving. Questions...

    Is Light Necessary During Incubation?

    I actually get my eggs this Saturday! Doing 10 Ameracaunas and already know I should probably sign up for Incubators Anonymous.. already in a chickens anonymous group. :hugs

    Is Light Necessary During Incubation?

    WOW, this is excellent information. Thank you! I'll make sure to keep the eggs away from the motor since I'll only have a dozen. Will look into your tin foil boat method! If you think of anything else, please feel free to share. I've been trying to read up on this as much as possible the last...

    What breed is this? Yellow chick with brownish feathers

    Hi Everyone! I've managed to keep all of my birds alive!! My mystery hen is now 22 weeks and started laying a couple weeks ago. Here is a picture of her now -- any thoughts on what breed of chicken this is? Thanks! :)

    Is Light Necessary During Incubation?

    First time incubating. I'm planning to use a dark closet inside of our guest bathroom that we don't really use. I figure this has the most stable temperature in the house, but it's almost pitch black in there unless I open the door or turn the light on. Is any kind of light necessary for...

    Scab/Pimple on Chick’s Head

    Hello! Chicks are about 4 weeks old, but I have one out of the 10 that have a little pimple that has scabbed over. She’s acting normal, eating, pooping. Should I be concerned? Should I apply anything on it?

    Pasty Butt in older chicks?

    Chicks are about 4 weeks old now and are at the point where they can reach their own vent. Does this mean they’re good to clean their own bums or should I still be checking them for pasty butt? They’ve been good for the past few weeks, and I’ve just been trying to be attentive.

    What breed is this? Yellow chick with brownish feathers

    Hmm. That’s be great. Though when she was younger and even now, she was much more yellow than pictures of other production red chicks.

    What breed is this? Yellow chick with brownish feathers

    Yeah, it’s a meal maker. I totally overlooked that I opted for this and was (pleasantly)surprised when there was a weird yellow one in the bunch.

    What breed is this? Yellow chick with brownish feathers

    Sweet! I’m happy with any. She’s the most social and friendly of the birds. And if she turns out to produce a higher yield, even better! (Now... let’s hope she is a she :))

    Relocating Chicks from House to Colder Barn. Bad Idea?

    Originally, I had my brooder set up in my barn. When I received my chicks, it was about 20 degrees in the morning. I had a couple that were dead on arrival, which was expected, but being a first time chick owner, I felt sooo bad and wanted to mitigate any other risks, so I relocated the chicks...

    What breed is this? Yellow chick with brownish feathers

    Ah, I may have overlooked this, but what age would IDing them be more accurate. UPDATE: I just google searched the chicks, and this has to be the most similar looking chick to mine that I’ve seen so far.

    Whoa! @Joeschooks I’m in love with your coop. I may have to pick your brain later about your setup.
