    January Hatching Coturnix Quail

    I spend most of my time in the Quail forums and forget to come over here. We Incubated 120 of our quail eggs. We were excited as we have bought the last 2 sets of 120 eggs from Myshire Farms. This set was completely from our adult birds. We laid down 120 eggs and only candled on lockdown day. we...

    Dying, hunch back pullets

    Why are my 8 week old chickens holding themselves like this? Back hunched, tail feathers down. The yellow one stood like that yesterday and was dead by this morning. Today, my olive egger is standing the same way. I attached a picture of my chicken with normal posture for comparison. I don’t...

    Hey the last two hatches I did in my Brinsea Incubator have hatched early day 19 and 20. I didn't think about the temperature possibly being wrong till it reached day 21 and no pips. Found out the temperature has been sitting about 35.8 Degrees Is there still a chance they will hatch? I'm...

    New babies… let mama do her thing or intervene?

    We woke up to 3 little babies running around, game hen and silkie mix. The mama seems to know what she’s doing, however we are concerned whether or not we need to step in. Should we keep babies with mama seperate with chick starter and water… or let her stay out with them and do their thing? I...

    New Babies

    I actually had the pleasure of my Cayuga to a Ancona. The original mate was lost to either a raccoon or fox, and I ventured into a different breed for the new mate. I came across Willow, my Ancona, and got her for Waldo, my Cayuga. I had a game hen hatch the babies for me, and they hatched this...

    They're here!

    12 Little Khaki Campbells arrived today (Pic #1). Spent the morning redoing all that I had planned to do in the brooder. Stuff like the height of the bowls, height of the cave, placement of the stuff. They're still a little frazzled from the long ride,, so I'm letting them settle in before I go...

    Are my quail ready for the great outdoors?

    I have 25 3/4 week old quail. They are currently in my barn. I'd like to move their quail tractor onto grass next week. Should I put them on probiotic water this week? I don't want them to catch anything and become sick. My chickens free range. I know chickens can carry diseases that are fatal...

    Chick is puffed up with droopy tail

    I have a blue laced red wyandotte chick being raised with 4 siblings by my silkie hen. Today when I went to give them a little lettuce to try I noticed this chick was a bit puffed up and it had its tail pointed down. It seems healthy, it can walk and flap, vent seems clear but it just seems off...

    Eccentric, predator proof, fun, repurposed brooder box

    First time chicken owner and decided to build my own brooder box since the pre made ones were either sold out or too expensive. This box was made using all repurposed materials I already had leftover from prior human home rebuilds, etc.; with a few exceptions: the dog kennel pan, plexiglass...

    SOON

    My babies aren't babies anymore. They're 5 months. The big boy I've got is dancing around them and their combs are growing in size. They've also been 'fighting' now for dominance in the flock. I'm SUPER hoping for eggs by the end of the month or by mid-February at least. I'm on Egg Watch until...
