    Goose egg hatching, best incubators and methods?

    Would you mind detailing your incubation process? Just hatched out my first batch of chicks, and that was easy enough, but info I’m finding online about goose incubation seems quite different. We have Brown Chinese. I appreciate it!

    Roo and Hen ID please!

    Yes-we will be putting them in with a flock of about 20 hens, once they’ve had a little time to adjust to their new life here. 😁

    Roo and Hen ID please!

    We just adopted this trio-breed ideas on the chickens? I have some guesses, but I’m fairly new to this. Thank you!

    Gender on my pekins?

    I’d have to say probably raspier. I was thinking that the ones tail seemed like it “flipped up” more-and might be headed toward developing a drake feather. While the other’s tail is straighter. ? Maybe?

    Gender on my pekins?

    These Pekins are about 16 weeks old-is that old enough to start accurately guessing their genders? I can’t really tell by their voices. Here is a pic, for any of you experts to help me guess!

    Surely my Olive Eggers are getting closer to gender reveal?

    Really! I would be delighted, of course! I felt like their combs were being slow, but I knew peacombs weren’t as distinctive early on. Thanks!

    Surely my Olive Eggers are getting closer to gender reveal?

    These two are 8weeks now: tried to get side, tail and head shots. Also, any guesses on their breed mix? Most EE type that I see are darker shades than mine. Thanks!

    Help me help this tiny “runt!”

    Unfortunately she didn’t make it...my kids just finished a burial with tombstone. Sweet, but sad. The other six look bouncy and bright, so hopefully an isolated problem. Thanks for your advice!

    Help me help this tiny “runt!”

    It did appear to have one “nugget” of poop stuck on, which I removed. Hopefully that helps Blossom, one of our flower themed ladies. 🌸

    Help me help this tiny “runt!”

    One of these Black cochins (I have two each of four different breeds), did have a little booty matting the first day that we attempted to clear, but I will check that again. Thanks!

    Help me help this tiny “runt!”

    I’ve had my (first batch ever) of tiny chicks for three days now. One (a Black Cochin), is smaller than the others and has a very “bumbling” kind of walk. It hunches down instead of standing fully like the others and will just peep continuously. It doesn’t seem to be eating and drinking like...

    Help me Guess my Olive Eggers’ genders!

    These Olive Eggers are 7.5 weeks. I’m feeling like their gender specific details should be getting clearer? Maybe? The one with the darker head is a little smaller and “rounder” than the other. It also has less distinct of a tail, while the larger one has a fairly developed “keel” shaped tail.

    Gender guess on my EE chicks?

    Two EE chicks, was told they were approx 4 weeks old. Any guesses? The larger of the two has darker feet that are significantly larger, also a more prominent tail, and possibly a more upright posture. The smaller has started getting a tail and is beginning to catch up size wise...maybe it is...
