    3rd Annual New Year's Day Hatch!!

    His head is deformed most likely because he is missing that eyeball as well as some of the muscles that work the head, that would account for the deformity in the skull. AS one who has worked in medicine I was surprised at how much our eyes shape our faces and skulls, I mean really astounded...

    3rd Annual New Year's Day Hatch!!

    I had two hatch out the 52 or 53 I set. I give up... I think I'll just buy some chicks this year. Does anyone hatch and ship chicks? I mean from here? I know the hatcheries do -- I just hate to buy from them. I'd rather my 100+ dollars go to a small "business". Anyway pm me if you do...

    2 chicks is it for me... someone (a little I think) or some cat managed to send the temp soaring to over 110 (the highest my thermometer will go) and killed the rest of my clutch. I'm really upset too as I had 1 last CJ egg left; it had internally pipped and everything! There were two...

    Quick! What do you guys think... Should I put the 8 or 10 eggs left and put them under the broody that adopted my first two? Or should I leave them alone in the bator??

    3rd Annual New Year's Day Hatch!!

    I am so pleased with my son's father... I have the two chicks in the shower stall in the upstairs bathroom, and I was really worried about how to get them to drink and eat. The little smarty pants went and brought in a broody (1st timer) and put her in a box and turned out the lights in the...

    I am so happy for you!!!!! The only thing with silkies is they need a slightly different perch set up as they cannot fly. Just make graduated perches so they can hop up to where they wanna be. Also I am careful that my boy has plenty of opportunity to stay dry because silkies get soaked...

    Well, I've got two out and doing well. The one that pipped died on me. I pitched five more sloshy sounding eggs as well. I have maybe a dozen left that haven't done a thing. Now for the duh question you've all heard a million times by now..... How long do I wait for the...
