    ISO pigeon hatching eggs - Pigeon couple

    I have a pigeon couple who are desperate to hatch eggs. The only issue is that it's been found, only after their first peep has grown, that their line might have an inclination for bad genetics. The female lays like clockwork, the male is devoted, and they both are great parents. They are...

    So quails...

    Dear Community, I am going to be hatching my first quails pretty soon. What advice would you give? Is there any special sensitivities they have that I should be aware of? What is something you enjoy the most about quails! And what is something that you would rather not deal with? Also, I am...

    3 questions!

    1. 46/89 of my shipped eggs have detached air cells.. I put them into the incubator in cardboard cartons with holes in the bottom (don’t have a turner) pointy end down. Any chance they’ll reattach..? Should I wait a few days to turn (well, till) rather than 1 day? 2. One of my incubators went...

    Ordering chicks in high summer, okay or bad idea?

    Here in Maine everyone gets chicks between late March and June. We're building a new coop right now and re-starting our flock. I realized that the hatcheries ship all year, so I could start this year rather than wait until next spring. In so many ways, this makes a TON of sense in my climate...

    Hatching Eggs With Altitude Change

    I'm trying to get ahold of peacock hatching eggs, but I know they fare poorly in shipping so I'm looking to pick them up from a state that borders mine, which would be a pretty long drive. A family member of mine is a private plane pilot and would be willing to bus me out to pick up the eggs...

    Where to Buy Single Adult Pretty Coturnix Hen (hopefully online)

    Hello! I am raising coturnix quail for eggs and as pets. I currently have three quails, two females and a male (Pharoah, Texas A&M, and Tibetan/Red). I’m hoping to get an additional laying female to add to my flock, as the male tends to mate when anxious and it can stress the females (they’re...

    'Express' mail now taking two days--worried

    I'm getting six chicks from Meyer Hatchery. They were shipped yesterday morning priority express, supposed to be here this morning. But the tracking now says they'll be here 'by 3 pm Wednesday'. I'm panicking a bit--will they be ok? That seems like far too long for little ones to be in a box...

    Shipped Eggs Getting a Bad Rap?

    So I hear it all the time. "Shipped eggs have bad hatch rates".... I know a guy who incubates pretty regularly and he has never bought shipped eggs and reccomends against it. You find mixed results when searching this website. It seems most people here tend to agree that hatching shipped eggs...

    CHICK EMERGENCY!!!

    Hey everyone, I got a shipment today from Meter. The post office messed up and left them sitting in a warehouse for an extra day. When I got the box, it was clear that it had been mishandled. I opened it, and all the chicks looked extremely lethargic. One chick in particular had her eyes crusted...
