ok well last time I had 18 eggs in the bator and one hatched and lived maybe 4 days. ( It had deformed legs! vet said it should be put down ) But this time out of 17 eggs 13 have hatched and look GREAT! I am so excited. I have 3 RIR , 2 EE , and the rest look like a mix of Doms and something...
I am very impressed about the ward! WOW way to think ahead.
Sorry to hear about your hen. I think the over all decission is yours and yours alone. Only you know your hen, give her time to heal, but always know that what you decide is the RIGHT choice for her. GOD Bless :aww
ok I hope I dont offend anyone. But what is the difference between meat birds and everyday birds. I know I am very fond of my chickens too. But do I have to buy "meat birds" or are they all meat birds?
ok that is so creepy! I feel so sorry for corn. Goes anyone know if it was a real thread or troll? Atleast it stoped. I am one weight watchers. and they have a forum and o man the trolls there are insaine!!!!! LORD Help them.
well we have a 3 bedroom home and of course 2 daughter each have there own room. But I do have 2 full baths. ours is Really big. Maybe I can but her in there. I refer to "her" Because I pray that she is a female. We just sold 5 roos. PLEASE NOT ANOTHER ONE! LOL
I have a forced air little giant. I like it. This last batch didnt turn out that great, but I think I know what I did wrong. And I agree in the south we do pay more for farming items.
You might not believe this but here in the South we are all about old wises tales. And this was one of them. But for us (and yes I did try it) you get your wedding ring and a string. and for both of my daughters is was true. mmmmm maybe I will try it on my next set of eggs.
I do have 11 chicks but they are outside in a seperate cage, so I know they cant be put together. my 2 day old still need heat lamp. will the mirror work or make her talk more?
Heres my 2 cents.......
I get up at 5 left the sheep and chickens out of the pen/coop. They stay out all day. They go all over until 6 pm when I feed them. Now they have been free ranged all day, but I still give laying pellets. last year we ran out of laying pellets and they went on strike...
ok as some know we had only one egg hatch. now I have a baby that is in a box and loves to talk. its too cool outside to put her there, so she is in my dinning room (mmm that might make her nervous!) and I think I am loosing my mind. The dog is even getting crazy! LOL. Where do you put your...
I am not sure what she is. We HAD 6 roos. So the daddy is up in the air. I think the mama is a Dom or Barrel Rock? Not sure. O well I will love it the same!
the instrustions for my little giant incubator stated to have the temp at 99.5. There should be a term. with the incubator, the 99.5 is written biggest. Also you should have the instructions too. I will reread the instructions to make sure about the temp. I know there has been alot of different...
Rose, I am sorry if you took my post the wrong way. I didnt mean it as a joke laughing at you. I was just thinking of the whole idea of walking around with an egg in my bra. LOL. It still makes me laugh. I can remeber on year when I was little I asked my grandmother (whom had chickens) If I sat...
