    Hey, i hope my post isnt too long and at least somewhat understandable. A few months ago we planned to hatch chickens for us and also for a friend of us. She asked for a certain breed, which was totally okay fur us, since we wanted to hatch more than one breed anyway. In the end we could only...

    How to integrate late hatched ducklings with others.

    Hello all, We let our 2 Khaki Campbells incubate their eggs. 15 hatched last weekend 5/31, but 2 of the eggs must have been rolled in from our other ducks late, since they didn’t hatch. I put them in a homemade incubator since the mothers abandoned the nest. They just hatched yesterday and...

    I found this chick pipped under the broody hen 26 hours ago. His beak was not at the pip location so I picked the egg up to investigate and the membrane was dry, there was no movement, and I didn’t hear any pips. I placed him in the incubator for a few hours while I did some research. I read...

    Hatched chick doesn’t look well

    On my second time hatching, had a large americauna egg hatch. Needed intervention to zip the egg. Followed instructions from here and other websites. Now they don’t seem to be doing well. The chick seems larger than any other chick I have hatched. Anything I can do to help them out?

    My son found this egg on the sidewalk at our city park. We wanted to give it a chance, so we incubated it. It seemed to have been developing appropriately—based on what I read online. However, today is either day 30 or 31 and it stopped moving as much. From what I could tell, there was no...
