I gave my chickens the Wazine 17 on May 2nd and I plan on an application of the pour-on Ivermectin on May 15th. I am not supposed to eat the eggs for two weeks after each dosing, BUT can I put the eggs in the incubator? Maybe save the eggs from 5/9 or 10, through 5/15 - before the Ivermectin...

..... on my Hova-Bator 1602N (with circulation fan)...... Initial set up calls for smaller/inner water tray filled, larger/outer water tray empty. After two hours of fine tuning, the Temp is pretty steady at 99.6 - 100.2*F Readings are taken with the digital Temp/RH gauge shipped with the...

I'm about to buy a incubator kit off ebay (egg turner, fan, candle light - says just add eggs and water) Holds 42 eggs total. I have chickens already, so I can get fresh eggs. I've read you store the eggs pointy end down at 55-60* F for up to 7-10 days. I plan on setting it up and running...

There are about 40 other chickens in there. The doors are open so they're all together. Only the 6 others in the first pic were pulled out yesterday. These are cell phone pics. I thought it might need to be more detailed. Guess I'd better start building a bigger pen and add the other...

I have the option to choose which rooster I want to fertilize my next batch of chicks. In the small pen currently are 5 hens and one of the darker roosters. The other two pics are of the other roosters that I can choose from. I do not have a clue what I should be looking for as far as...

Quote: I do this with my chickens, non-meaties. My daughter thought they were trying to attack me. She thought they "knew" I had treats for them. If they're far way a few will fly towards me to try and beat the others. Its pretty funny to watch them run, they look like the dinasours on the...

I have a hen that was sitting on 3 eggs as of 4/9 (not hers) I have one white EE hen thats laying light green/olive eggs, one every day. I took the greenish eggs and put them under the "broody" hen until there were 9 eggs total.... so the last egg would have been laid 4/15. After I noticed...

Illia - "he has a LOT of red leakage in the chest, wings, tail, etc."------- crystal clear now, thanks I thought you could tell from the pic that he had something physically wrong that would casue him to be a poor example. SteveH - thank you. The white hen is very pretty. I had a picture of...

Quote: Are you saying my particular rooster is poor quality, or this color in general designates a very poor quality? He was malled by a dog a few weeks ago. Thats why his feathers look so bad. The dog pulled out most of his tail feathers - had some nice looking long ones - also pulled most...

Hello all, Just signed up today. I'm up above Spokane, around Deer Park. I started last spring with a few chicks, now I'm waiting for my first batch of eggs to hatch. I raise chickens mostly for the eggs and for entertainment. Dan

Hello all, I'm pretty new to raising chickens. I got my first batch of chicks last spring (one mother hen + 7 chicks, 3 chickens that were about 3 weeks old and another 5 chicks hatched in an incubater) The mother hen hatched out 3 more late summer/early fall last year. Out of those 20...

Hello, I think I have three EE chickens. In the pics are my white colored hen and the redish/brown rooster - the only rooster I have - in the other pic is a gray hen with some brown colored breast feathers. What are the proper names for these color configurations? From what I've read on...
