Proud mama, hatched some eggs from my Welsummer hen and Blue Copper Maran Rooster. Hoping for some dark egg layers, and a larger size egg than the welsummer produces.
I've ordered from Ideal Poultry with great success, they always send extras, and are easy to contact if there is a problem. One order was a few chicks short and was refunded immediately for them, no questions asked. Chicks always seem healthy.
Hahahahahahaha
Yeah,becuase home processing is far less safe then sending chickens to CHINA. STFU government until you start actually caring about food safety.
Hahahahahshaha! I Concur
Candled my Rhodebar eggs last night, 12 of 14 have squirmy little chicks inside!!! Sold all my ducks a few weeks ago, but couldn't resist incubating some along with the Rhodebars, well... 9 little duckies, I asked for it...
My beetles seemed to arrive later than normal, and many died right after I transferred to a separate bin. I provide potatoes and carrot, rice bran, and chick starter. May are doing fine, just curious if its normal to lose do many...
Yrs
Did you just get him? We picked ours out as a newborn and took her home when she was about a month 1/2 old.
*WARNING* If you just got him and it is from the same breeder, check him for pig lice!!!!! Our baby had them all over. Threw me into a crazy panic, but I learned they aren't...
