2-14-2011 good luck!!!

The roos will have a straight line of feathers all even hens will have two layers staggered its really easy and has worked for me really well. Sorry I didn't reply earlier but I have been so busy trying to get everything ready for school to start back. I do apologize. There is a video of a girl...

thank you guys for your advice I have never heard of a black minorca before. I know it is really fast and skidish and also the others don't like it for some reason.

I can't tell if it is a blue but we have bantam chickens too and it holds its wings and looks like them more so then the bigger chickens. The people we got it from had really pretty chickens. Our older chickens keep picking on him so we had to seperate it from the rest.

it is suppose to be a blue andylusia and he is about 12 weeks old

well two more of the 15 eggs died so that is three down but I have twelve chickies..... On another note I went to clean the incubator up and set it up for lockdown with the bantam eggs and when I got them out of the turner to lay them flat I heard cheaping needless to say I turned them over and...

Yay now I have three yellow chicks and still have two in the incubator pipping and two doing nothing keeping my fingers crossed still that they will hatch too

Well I have 7 chicks that have hatched and 7 in the incubator still one pipped nothing from the others. One died last night it pipped and busted through the top alittle but just didn't make it It was coming from a very small deformed egg so I kinda figured it was gonna have problems I was just...

I guess I better rephrase that I haven't tried to sex bantams I have heard that they are really hard to tell but the bigger breed chicks I can sex for you.

I can tell you better when they are around 3 days old if you spred the wings out. Its better when what I call there primary feather shoots start putting the tip of the feather out on the wings. I could possibly tell you on day 4 but that would be pushing it cuz it gets harder to do the older...

Yay I woke up this morning and I have three more pipped only one had pipped when I went to bed last night!!! My lil chick that hatched a day early yesterday is so lonely he/she need another lil chicky friend.... Yay sportchick I was hoping you would still have some babies after the turner...

Thank you pippy chicken!!!

when I had my homemade incubator and of course it wasn't perfect I had to assist many of my chicks hatch. I would start with peeling the the drying membrane back some because I left one alone by advice from reading on here and it dried so bad to the chick I couldn't get it off. I would peel some...

Wow that little chick that was cheaping pipped zipped and busted out within like 2 hours it was ready to come out Now I have another in the bator cheaping!!! I wonder if their all gonna be that quick wondering should I stay up or go to bed

Yeah I heard my first little cheaper!!! I can't wait. I am sorry pippy chicken if it makes you feel better the roosters we hatched I took a picture of drowned one yesterday. I don't know why they do that sometimes. They huddle up around the waterer thing and for some reason it happens I don't...
