Ok my peeps, need a little help here. I am thinking about getting a 10 month old barnevelder rooster from someone local here. I bought some barnevelder hatching eggs from Northwoods Poultry that should be here soon and I would like to breed them. I am wanting the rooster so that I have...
It looks like your chick will be ok from the pics. I would seperate her and put some bag balm on her wound or vitamin d ointment to keep it from getting infected. I would do that for a few days but then allow it to dry out and heal. Just make sure to keep it clean ;)
Hi Everyone, it's been a while since I've posted but I have a question for those of you that hatch shipped eggs. How do you set the eggs for lockdown...laying down or upright in egg cartons? And has it been successful?
Update: My total for the HAL is 79.
19 blue partridge and gold partridge brahmas
4 red orpingtons
4 red cuckoo orpingtons
3 silver partridge orpingtons
7 laced orpingtons
3 white orpingtons
25 choc/choc cuckoo orpingtons
2 jubliee orpingtons
12 black/blue copper marans
I had issues...
@Fire Ant Farm What day are you on? I'm halfway into day 21 and no pips. There is movement by some of the eggs when I shine a light on them though. I've done everything right this time around so I'm a little concerned why I haven't any pips??
@Sally Sunshine none of my last batch made I. I'm trying to pretend it never happened. I had the temp set too low and humidity too high. It was rough My current batch should hatch this Saturday. I have 9 that are still kicking. They are brahmas again. Trying to get a big enough breeding stock...
