    Urgent advice needed on hatching partridge eggs

    Hi there, a few weeks ago a well-intentioned family member popped some abandoned partridge eggs underneath the chickens we own in the hope that the hens would sit on the eggs and raise them as their own. They’ve sat on the eggs happily until now, but have started to attack the chicks as they’ve...

    picked up some chicks from the feed store and they won’t move?

    we just got home, so i set them in their little home with lights, food, and water like i have with the rest of my chicks. when i put them in there though they refused to move; they’re just kinda standing there. maybe it’s stress from all the moving? i’m not sure. help

    Gasping chick

    Yesterday I hatched 2 bantam chicks for the first time using a incubator. The second chick pecked a hole and then had a rest for 2 hours or so then hatched within 30mins however the first chick found it very difficult to hatch and barely took a break as I watched them closely. He struggled for a...
