    Egg withholding - can you give to chickens?

    We've been told to give our girls coxiprol to try with an issue we've got and it has a 10 day egg withholding period. I was wondering, can you (cook and) give the chickens their eggs when they're being given coxiprol or other meds they might all be on?

    Is this egg dead?

    Hello! This little guy was moving a few days ago and I went to do one last check (day 18) and he’s not looking too alive anymore. I can’t see any veins, only bloody looking spots; no movement (today, the other three eggs all moved into position and he hasn’t). Now I’m noticing the air sac is...

    Incubating Saxony duck eggs (first time)

    Hello, I turn to you in a slightly gloomy mood. This year we decided to try hatching our duck eggs in an incubator. All the eggs were fertilized and probably genetically fine too, because we gave them to people to hatch a few times and they hatched without any problems. Today is the 29th day...

The chicks hatched a little under 2 months ago (staggered hatch that I had to finish in the incubator). A few days ago we found the hiding spot the hens had started laying new eggs in, and...

    Should I stop turning the eggs?

    My chicken went missing, turned out she was sitting on eggs. Not how long she has been sitting on them but she passed so I took the eggs inside to the incubator but I'm not sure if should turn them or not. The babies in the eggs are moving around. Is it better to stop turning them later or...
