Yeah, I guess my reply was more for auction cages. I'll get pics of a nice travel cage that is too good to give away with an auction bird. It is made for pass through so the feathers and train does not get roughed up.

12 is too wide, the birds will get turned around and mess up the feathers. It will depend on what you use for the uprights but 9 is a good width unless you use 2x2's. If you use 1x2 eight is good unless the bird is really big. I use 9x24x24 with 1x2 uprights. Be sure the wire is pulled...

When the membrane is translucent like that and the veins have drained the blood it is safe to proceed. If you see red veins you need to use caution as rupturing a vein will cause death.

Did you watch the video? If not you should. Your chick was due on the 29th, candle it and see if there is any movement, it is at least three days past due at this point. If you incubators temperature is low that could have set the development back but it is still is past due.

Funny story. I watched Geralds video early in the day on Sunday. I then went down to the basement to clean out the hatcher, to move the eggs due to hatch on Tuesday, I set on Wednesday and hatch on Tuesday 28 days later. So I still have a half dozen eggs left in the hatcher that did not...

She also carries one of the white genes, without test breeding there is no way to determine which one it is unless you know the parents but with the knowledge that the breeder has I doubt she could shed any light on the mystery. Beautiful girl, when you look for a mate consider a White out of...

Congratulations! You have a beautiful India Blue Black Shoulder hen.

It is more common than people think, I have heard of many stories like yours. One from a known and trusted friend of mine that had a hen lay fertile eggs after brooding a clutch with no cock present a couple of months after the chicks hatched. However, this is not the norm and should never be...

Yes, 50 pound bags. I have no idea if the 25's are big enough.

Yeah, well that's what happens when you get old like us and have CRS. It happens to me a lot.

You are welcome. The legs are pulled straight out behind him, the legs and the tail are wrapped with the bag and then secured with either tape or wire or both. This is a good time to remove, not cut, but pull all of the train feathers. If you gently pull with a twist the feathers will pop...

A pillowcase is more likely to tear than a paper feed bag. I wouldn't use the plastic feed bags because they do not breathe or let moisture pass through making the birds hot, be sure to use paper. We do not tape the legs, we just wrap the bag around them and either tape or wire the bag around...
