BREEDING FOR PRODUCTION...EGGS AND OR MEAT.

[FaerieChicken]

That looks like some good stuff.
How much does it cost?

50lb bag is $20 for scratch... $22 for yard blend!

So far I've been in the "never sleep" category during most of my hatches, which I always arrange to hatch over the weekend when I'm not working, but I'm seriously considering purchasing a second incubator. So far I've been very lucky in my tracking, but now that I've decided to try breeding to SOP I can see things becoming more complicated.

Good idea on getting the 2nd incubator. Go chicken math, go!

The eggs there we're the ones that didn't hatch.... I opened them to see what was up, out of this 5 like 3 or 4 we're naked necks but most of them looked ready to hatch but just didn't make it out. Only 2 were at about day 15 to 18 and just stopped developing .

Slip your baskets inside one of those plastic mesh bags like ones found on a grocery store ham or turkey or a bag of onions. Use a twist tie to close the open end of the bag. Chicks can move about in the basket, but not jump out. I've even used paper egg carton lids as baskets.

I just won those on bingo and CJ sent them just in time to give them a try for the first time!

Are you marking them all with leg bands or some other method? The chick down will change, and very quickly!
