Locked down the 14 that had made it this far. Kinda excited except my absolute favorite rooster died today... and I have a frizzle thats dying too. I dont know what to do. I started a thread on the disease forum if anyone knows their chicken diseases.

Rooster to 5 of 7 eggs in lockdown died last night. No apparent problems. I was debating on keeping him but wasn’t planning on it being this way. Only 8 months old. My mixed birds are living much longer than the standard breeds.

I'm sorry about your Roo.. What's going on?!

7 fluffy ducks so far. I dont think the 3 eggs left in the bator made it
Now just waiting to see how many of my chickens will hatch out... some are peeping and some of those are starting to zip​

Your ducks are too cute!!
