    Love your crosses! Do you have any idea what these may be crossed with?

    International Black Copper Marans Thread - Breeding to the SOP

    Interested to see what others say! My pullet has laid a few like this and I just figured it was her body getting used to laying again (she's only been laying for a week now this spring after not laying all winter). I figured she was still working on getting the pigmentation part right again.

    Thanks! I only have one hen and she is nearly all black. She also hasn't laid an egg since September. I'm going crazy waiting.

    Black Copper Marans Sex

    Thanks. Well it looks like it'll be 4/5 cockerels then. Two are showing coloring and one of those is already crowing. One is clearly a pullet. The other two in question seems like you guys agree will be cockerels.

    Black Copper Marans Sex

    I'm thinking so too. Is it normal for cockerels to not have any copper showing at this point?

    Was this egg Fertilized or not.

    I'm not seeing anything. Can you flip the yolk over with a spoon?

    Parakeet cere

    That is really disappointing!! This is all they are doing so far! Thanks everyone for your help.

    Parakeet cere

    So is it common for two females to form a pair like they have? They are most definitely bonded and haven't shown any signs of aggression towards each other. I got them from an older woman who said she couldn't care for them anymore. The coconut and the eggs came with them. If these are indeed...

    Parakeet cere

    So tonight I got a breeding pair of parakeets. I was told the blue one was male and green female. They have three eggs in a coconut nest currently. The green parakeet is sitting on the eggs and the blue one is caring for her but also sits on the nest with her. I am just concerned about his cere...

    Breed ideas?

    When we first got them and then at around 5-6 weeks. These were given to us from someone who got them at Tractor Supply or Rural King I am guessing and said they couldnt care for them. Any ideas? Thanks!

    Pullet or Cockerel and Breed suggestions...

    Thanks guys. You both seem pretty sure :( I am determined to keep this one since it was my only to hatch.

    Pullet or Cockerel and Breed suggestions...

    This chick is 6 weeks old. Wondering if you guys have any ideas? I also don't know the breed as it was hatched from a mixed flock. I will say it was the only chick to hatch out of 6 that I incubated. On day 23. Thanks!

    12th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-Along

    I used a Govee sensor for my recent hatch and only one of five hatched. I am convinced the humidity readings were wrong but I was also using a poorly built incubator so I can't say for sure that this was the problem. I just felt like it was always reading way lower that it should have.

    Why does humidity go up when I open incubator?

    I think I'll open it quick enough to put a couple of wet sponges at the same level as the eggs. To add anything below I'd have to take the eggs out. I have plastic tubing ran to the outside at the water tray level. It is rainy here today so that may help! I might also turn in the humidifier in...

    Why does humidity go up when I open incubator?

    Thank you! That makes so much sense. It reminds me of when I didn't have a garage. I'd try to figure out if my windshield would have ice in it in the morning by tracking the dew point! Anyway I am at day 19. Keeping the temp at 98.6 (forced air) humidity is staying at 22% even though I keep...

    Why does humidity go up when I open incubator?

    This is so interesting! So if I have my temperature at 100 and my hydrometer is saying 25% does that mean that I am actually incubating at 63% humidity?
