This is how our coop came about. We have two boys 11 and 7, our oldest son joined the 4-H Club at his school. He selected the Poultry project, two years in a row, no chickens 1st yr.. I put off ordering the chicks for over a year! After being...

I'm in! I set 13 eggs a few min. ago, hoping these hatch. This is my second attempt, the first round I set 17 eggs on Christmas night. Candled them on day 4, so then we had 14 in bator that were fertile. I'm guessing that the temp was off cause no baby chicks I have a still air incubator...

OK, I bought some Wazine from my local feed store. I just don't know when to worm them. They are 6 months old now and all are starting to lay. I read that you should throw out the eggs for 2 weeks.?? Also, I seen you can use Cayanne Pepper and Ivermectin? Please Help.
I have just finished my coop design page. Please submit for the contest!
Thanks:)
