    d'uccle hen laying blood stained eggs, after giving poultry cell in beak she is gurgly

    What do you suggest after the 1 week of the calcium supplement? She didn’t have any prolapse at all today. How can I add more calcium to their diet? We already feed the kalmbach layer feed and provide free choice oyster shell. I am going to do my best to make a decision and deworm everyone...

    d'uccle hen laying blood stained eggs, after giving poultry cell in beak she is gurgly

    My daughter has a 1 year old bearded bantam d'uccle hen that she LOVES. She weighs no more than 1.5 pounds. Over the last couple of weeks we have found a few blood stained eggs, but couldn't figure out who was laying them even with vent checks daily. Yesterday we found another bloods stained...

    Adding essential oil to water reservoir in incubator?

    I didn’t think about the strength in such a small space, I guess that would be like setting eggs in a diffuser…probably not an excellent idea like I thought earlier :(

    Adding essential oil to water reservoir in incubator?

    I think that's an excellent idea, but I don't know about the safety maybe someone else will; I would definitely try it myself :)

    What is this white covering on the egg?

    It doesn't wash off, but you can scratch it off.

    What is this white covering on the egg?

    We have been getting these strange white covered eggs from our less than year old golden laced wyandotte hen. The white on them has been increasing until now it covers the whole egg. What can cause this? She often times also has a red blood spot in her eggs which concerns me.

    Duckling hatching?

    The little guy passed away. From what I could see it hadn't absorbed its yolk much at all. My incubator's humidity and temp kept fluctuating much more than it should and was much hotter in the back row which is where all of the early hatchers were located. I now have 3 healthy ducklings hatched...

    Duckling hatching?

    I am very confused by this egg/duckling. The duckling is trying to hatch, but there’s lots of yuck coming out too, is it safe to leave it in with the others while hatching? They are also hatching 3 days early, my incubator is fluctuating temp and humidity terribly.

    porcelain d'uccle chick beak

    We have 5 d'uccle chicks and the smallest one's beak is smaller and almost parrot-like, is this a problem? We are new to d'uccles and unsure if this should be a fault or a culling point for our future breeding program. Thanks! ( I wish the picture showed it better, I will try to get another...
