    Fertilized or not?

    Possibly. Looks promising. Try it and see. You'll know by Day 3 because the eggs will visibly be developing by then. If it's not fertilized there will be no change. If it's not fertilized, you haven't lost anything but 3 days of incubation time.

    Help, my chicken is sick

    La respiración dificultosa sin secreción nasal ni ocular suele indicar congestión pulmonar, lo que puede ser un signo de insuficiencia cardíaca inminente. En este caso, no hay mucho que puedas hacer, pero intenta que se sienta cómoda. Puedes ofrecerle pienso húmedo y huevo crudo para animarla a...

    Help, my chicken is sick

    Fotos de esta gallina serían muy útiles y nos ayudarían a diagnosticarla. Fotos de ella de vista lateral, sentada y de pie, y una buena vista de su rostro.

    Everyone's favorite game!

    Sorry you were lied to. That super sucks! At least they're cute, and healthy.

    Everyone's favorite game!

    The head poofs on the birds that have them don't look like CCL / CCL-mix head poofs to me. They look like Polish head poofs, for what it's worth, we know they are heavily mixed anyway. I'd just wait and see what they lay.

    Weird Egg

    x2 what Wyorp Rock said. I thought the bit circled in this picture was a straight up egg yolk, but if it's lash egg material, that changes things.

    Weird Egg

    Possible that part of the oviduct (ETA: piece of the follicle) got included in the egg when that one was made inside the chicken. I had one do that a time or two, but not so much red stuff/blood in mine. Other than that, no idea. Good news though, if it is a partially included oviduct (ETA: I...

    First Wounds. Are these serious?

    The green is from bruising and should clear up in a few weeks. It's normal, and nothing to worry about. I've seen wounds worse than this close up fine, even though they look very deep. It really will be okay, just keep the chicken herself and anything else from messing with it. If you look...

    First Wounds. Are these serious?

    Wow. That type of damage from another chicken is not normal, and is not good. Do you know who it might have been? What % protein are you feeding them, and how big (square feet of floor space) is the coop and the run? Chicken-chicken aggression can be genetic, can be due to stress from lack...

    This is supposed to be a whiting true green hen from mcmurtay

    Have you got a few more pictures? Because that looks like a roo to me, but having such a pink comb isn't normal. I'd like to also see more of a side view. If you already have one roo crowing, this roo could be a slow developing roo - sometimes they will slow down on their development if...

    First Wounds. Are these serious?

    Both wounds appear to be healing well. You can spray them with Vetericyn or slather them with neosporin (without pain prevention drugs, original formula only) but honestly it will probably heal up fine without you doing anything but keeping your hen away from anyone who would pick at it, and...

    First Wounds. Are these serious?

    Do you have a rooster? Where are these exactly on the chicken? are they on her abdomen kind of on her sides, under her wings, in the middle of her body?

    Egg color

    Yeah, occasionally, there will be a blue egger whose eggs are just barely blue. In my bird's case, she was a prairie bluebell, and I think white leghorn was in that hatchery mix somewhere. The zinc white gene from white leghorns can cause the blue color to be a lot fainter. If I had bred her...

    Egg color

    Peel the inside membrane off the inside of the shell. Then place the inside shell right on top of a page of super white printer paper. Look at it in different lighting conditions. You will probably see it is very faintly blue. I had one blue layer you couldn't tell was blue unless I put her...

    Meat Bird Comparison: Freedom Ranger Hatchery White Ranger, FR New Hampshire, Cornish Rock Cross, and Ginger Broilers

    Everyone did a molt in late fall, but we've had weird crazy weather here, spring, then winter, then spring, then winter, and we're back to spring again. No idea if it will stay this time. I had one adult NH who started up laying after her molt and laid for a month or so thru December and a bit...

    Egg turning while incubating.

    Should be fine. Just do what you can. You turn when you get up, go to bed, and get home from work, or dinner, about 2-4 hrs before you go to bed. If you get up in the night to go to the bathroom, turn the eggs. If you wake up, and it takes you 2 hrs to get out of the house for work, turn...
