    Black copper marans/wheaten marans cross

    Does anyone have a pic of chicks &/or older black copper marans wheaten marans cross? I bought some chicks that are supposed to be black copper marans, they are marans I saw the eggs but 1 looks brown with a lot of brown coming in on the feathers. A couple look like they could be cuckoo marans &...

    When you open unhatched eggs ...

    When you eggtopsy I guess, what do you do with them? Bury them, flush them, just throw it away, run it down the sink???

    calibrating hygrometer

    It's been just under a week & the temp seems to be steady according to 4 different thermometers, not counting the one that came with it, si I figured I'd do the hygrometer test at the last turning for the night before I went to bed. I turned the eggs, took out the 2 thermometer with hygrometer...

    I've been looking at a lot of threads, pics, videos & was wondering why the dark blob on day 3 candling would be moving? There's nothing really there yet so what, why? Thanks

    Omg, I just accidentally made my hen upchuck.

    When I got her (a couple weeks ago or so) I think she had vent gleet ... she's much better. I was trying to look at her just a bit ago & made her upchuck on accident. I was able to see that she has feathers growing back back there but I still think her vent tore at some point ... the top part &...

    egg air cell chart

    I have tried printing these out & none of them print out right. They're either too small (yes, I've even messed with printer setting ... no go) or don't save correctly to computer. Have to pull up in a browser which then again do not print out correctly. Is there not a pic somewhere that will...

    silkie chick with crooked beak

    I just noticed it maybe a week ago. They're probably 2-3 months old, maybe ... don't remember when I bought them. It's not crossbeak ... the whole beak is crooked & growing to, I think, the left. The other 2 are fine. It acts fine, active, eats, even uses the waterer with chicken nipples. Does...

    Can't figure him out

    I'm pretty sure it's a boy. I got him because I liked his color ... a gray/blue even as a chick. He had a bare bottom area so I got him marked down. He was also feathering in weird ... like really slow or something. I could see wing shape. He is no longer bare butted, it's now fluffy. His tail...

    dirty vent area

    We were given a hen whose rear end looked dirty, did some research, cleaned her up the best I could (soaked her rear in in soapy water with a little epsom salt) & put some antifungal cream on (2 kinds). Here's a pic from a few minutes ago ... her feathers are still wet from bath & that white...

    Hen & rooster all of a sudden not getting along.

    Hope this is the right section. My chickens all got along great. Good rooster, does what he's supposed to, not rough etc. Then today my biggest hen was fighting him, she was instigating it, going after him .... making his comb bleed & such. Why would she do this all of a sudden?? It's very...

    Bucket waterer with nipples

    I have some nipples on their way but I've seen some posts about the buckets being too heavy when hanging. So I was thinking about this & was wondering if you criss crossed something (like chain maybe) under the bucket between the nipples all the way back up to the top & also hung it on the hook...

    door flaps

    Welp, I did what someone here said & went to Wal-mart & got the cheap clear car mat ($1something). I cut it in strips, overlapped them a little & put them over the pop door. I hooked one up for a few days then dropped it down at night & eventually, over a matter of days, they all came out...

    feathering out question

    Chicks are a few weeks old & are mostly feathered but I noticed there's not alot of feathers on the side of ones neck. I noticed it when she stretched so it's hidden under other feathers. I don't know if it's the same one or a different one but also under the wings. My question is ... when...

    Is this a male?
