    Could I get some help from my fellow chicken people?

    Thanks again!! So glad this thing is almost over. Last day is Thursday. I called the radio station last week to clarify something and I was told that the winner will be announced this Friday. I've forbidden myself from thinking about the possibility of actually winning. Less disappointment that...

    New to the chicken hatching hobb

    Welcome to the wonderfully addictive world of hatching eggs!! JetCat is correct in that you would be able to smell a bad egg. I've had eggs in an incubator and as soon as I open it, I knew one was bad. Just pulled each egg out and gave them a sniff. Found the bad one real quick that way! If one...

    Could I get some help from my fellow chicken people?

    LOL! And Thanks, Blooie! In the photo, my kitchen doesn't look horrible. It's definitely much roomier than most of the entrants. All the cabinets were made by the builder which are just like the rest of the house...not square and very wonky! I also think the builder used stuff he found or was...

    Could I get some help from my fellow chicken people?

    Thanks so much!! We knew that the house we bought was going to have to be completely remodeled. We didn't realize how bad it was until we actually got started on it, though! It's taken us 2 1/2 years just to do the garage! We are finally starting on the actual house and winning this thing would...

    Could I get some help from my fellow chicken people?

    It's been awhile since I've visited BYC. Between work, kids, remodeling a home, etc., etc., it's been difficult for me to find some down time to even work on my favorite hobbies! I sure miss knitting! Anyways, here's my current situation...we entered into a contest out of San Antonio. The local...

    Butchered a couple of mule ducks-Help please

    I butchered a couple of 8 week old mule ducks this afternoon. This is my first time doing ducks and I can tell you that plucking them is nothing like plucking a chicken! After all of their feathers were removed, there is this very fine layer of tiny feathers covering their belly and sides that I...

    I haven't shown them myself but the person I purchased the original eggs from last year told me that they were from show parents.

    10++ D'uccle Eggs! My girls are still laying like crazy and I'm done incubating eggs for the season! I don't want to see their eggs go to waste though. Great birds with sweet dispositions. I'm not 100% sure but I do believe that the hen on the left in the photos is a Blue Mille Fleur D'uccle...

    Help me ID these ducks please.

    Several weeks ago I hatched some mystery duck eggs we found at a pond. Two of them I have no idea what they are. Their eggs were a light green color and they took a few days longer to hatch than the other ducks. Any ideas? Thanks!
