Ive found a stock pellet feed at atwoods. I've been feeding to my chickens, they also free range. The feed is $6.99 for a 50 pound bag. Anyone else feeding this?

How many nesting boxes do you have for that many pullets?

Is all I see...I am missing 5 of my chickens. Something came into the coop last night and tore down the heat lamp. I am locking em in from now on...didn't close the door last night. My favorite EE "Sugar" is one missing. Only bright side, I sat 56 eggs friday. About 8 of those are "sugar's"...

the other bator isn't normally running. I normally use the 2nd one for lockdown. That way I can set more eggs sooner!!

Quote: I have fans in both, I went ahead and just moved the extras to the egg carton in the other bator, I'll just put something under the bator several times a day to tilt the eggs. As the ones that quit or don't develop come out I'll move to the turner if I have room

Quote: LG doing a little better now. 100 degrees on screen, 99-100 on top of eggs. Getting the temp even is trial. A broody is easier! Turning 35 ish eggs 3 times a day is the pits. I think I'm going to ask for a turner for CHristmas! I have a LG now, its' holding steady at 100, has...
