    Cayuga Ducks - When do they lay their eggs?

    The above says it all... I'm from Cape Town, South Africa (RSA) We are in the season of "winter" right now. Spring will arrive in September. So I was wondering if anyone knows more or less when our female will lay her egg/s ? I got them thru a friend who knew of someone that had Cayuga ducks...

    Is this fertilized?

    Hi everyone, my Cayuga ducks laid this egg about three days ago and i noticed yesterday the formation of a black dot in the center that’s become more prominent today. Is this a good sign? Or has the egg lost its chance? I cant make out any veins quite yet!

    Hi everyone. I'm Shaz, and I'm brand new to poultry. We currently keep a couple of small parrot species, but recently became a bit obsessed with the quail at our local farm. A couple of weeks on Google and lingering here and we've finally bit the bullet, and now have a dozen CPQ eggs set...

    Egg laying

    Hi all. A few days ago I posted pictures of 2 eggs. Unanimously it was decided they were from my Guinea and not my chickens. My oldest Guinea is 14-16 weeks. Anywho- she laid 2 eggs within 12 hours. It has now been a full 72+ hours since another egg has been seen. My question is, when they...

    What do you use to store eggs on the counter?

    Those of you that keep your eggs on the counter (and out of the fridge), what do you use to hold the eggs in? I currently have this container, but I often have more than a dozen eggs sitting there and would like to stop using paper cartons because, well, they just don't look nice. :) Do you use...

    Any hope? Eggs moved

    We have 2 hens sitting (for about a week) in the back corners of our coop. Our nephew came over to play and while the ladies got up for the quick water & food break, he went in and collected the eggs in his t-shirt. I thought he was already aware that they were trying to hatch babies, but I...

    Dead or alive?

    My candler is cheap. But I’m new to the chick hatching game and wanted to see if this was a dud egg or not? It’s black all around? Put them in incubator around the 28th or so of April. If any one has any tips I would love to be a better candler.

    Should I ship hatching eggs or pre-hatched chicks?

    When my chickens are old enough, I will put up a sign in front of my house and sell eggs for food. But, I'm considering breeding some of my chickens and setting up an online store to sell to people. The problem is that I don't know whether to ship eggs or chicks. Even with proper packing, the...
