    SOS SICK 14 WEEK OLD CHICKEN

    I do have corid! I tried to get her to drink the corid water, but she won’t. Should I attempt to syringe it like the nutridrench? Crop feels empty to me.

    SOS SICK 14 WEEK OLD CHICKEN

    I walked out to the coop to see one of my cream leg bars just nestled up on the coop floor. They like to do that sometimes so I didn’t think much of it until she didn’t get up when I came next to her and touched her. I tried to get her to stand and she was weak and wobbly. She just seems SO...

    Thank you! I was SURE it was the opposite when they were younger. They change so much. Lol. I’m still anxiously awaiting a crow from one of them.

    The good ole “help me figure out what gender my silkies are” post

    I have two silkies. One black and one white. I originally swore the black was a male based off of the stance it had always had but I’m not so sure. This white one is much smaller but the hair is different. It also has a much deeper cluck lol. My poor black one has pretty bad cross beak, but has...

    7 week old silkie randomly developing slight cross beak

    My silkie is about 7 weeks old and I have noticed it’s starting to have slight cross beak. My other silkie from the same hatch is totally fine. I know silkies are more prone to vitamin deficiencies. What can I do to help?

    6w old silkie gender based off comb method?

    6w old silkie gender based off comb method?

    This baby very much gives off roo vibes just based off of the insane straight stand up posture they always seem to have. I have another silkie who’s much smaller, but from the same hatch. She doesn’t stand up near as straight as this guy. What are we thinking based off of the comb?

    Is there a such thing as “too much candling”

    Oh I definitely won’t be messing with them during lockdown at all. More so meant prior to lockdown within the first two weeks. My same thought was that hens hop off the eggs periodically as well. Thank you!!

    Is there a such thing as “too much candling”

    This was my same thought process. I’ve seen some people say you’ll disturb the air sacs etc. but broody hens hop up and down and roll them around. Lol

    Is there a such thing as “too much candling”

    Is there a such thing as candling too often? We are have some eggs incubating and we are on day 6. Just want to know if there’s a such thing as candling too often? I know that you don’t notice a huge difference within a day, but didn’t know if it “hurts” anything to candle more than just once or...

I’ve had my incubator running since yesterday (nurture right 360) and have a hygrometer/thermometer. Temp is between 99.5-100. Humidity is at about 50-55%. Am I at a good spot number wise for...

    Adding eggs after beginning incubation

    Do I need to turn the eggs while they’re on the counter? They’re in a carton.
