I have UofA Blues Hatching on Saturday! Another hatch a long.....

Someday I will have to add UofA to the breakfast maker's. Such a HUGE blue egg! Meanwhile I'm continually breeding my EE's for blue/green tint and to increase size.

Quote: That's good to hear! When I was raising canaries last year I had one chick that kept it's eye closed. I think he still has the eye, but it appears malformed and somewhat sunken. I would not sell a bird like that so I ended up keeping him. I'm glad I did. I is a red moasaic and he sings beautifully!

Happily cutting the bottom out of some egg flats in prep for lockdown at noon.

How exciting!

Ok...here are chick pictures. But I don't know how to post the eggtopsy pictures so they don't show up unless people want to look at them.
I also lost the little one that was not doing well last night. One of them was stepped on by the broody the day I removed the 7 smallest anf brought them in. I think it was this one so there may have been organ damage done at that time. It was one of the Marans.

Love them!!!! I wonder how many black and white chicken breeds that I could collect?!!!

Quote: They are from Luvin'bluechickens project Mottled Ameraucana auction. I can't wait to see them all feathered out!

I can see the eggtopsy pictures in the side listing of "recent photos in this thread". Are they showing for everyone? If they are...I'm sorry......

no need for that, i've already written about 2 pages this morning -- but a girl's got to eat her breakfast at some point, right? and it's always nice to have company with breakfast.

Cheers to that.

I need help withy new genesis. I filled the suggested area, which is highlighted in the pic. I got like 55% humidity.
Emptied that, dried it. Then filled that square right in the middle for 30%. Just add some to one of the rectangles next to it, but I'm thinking that may be too high. Any help would be greatly appreciated . Could those with this tell me what they fill up?

No...all still had the heads tucked.

I read on the Avian Web "Chick Problems/Deformities", that chicks that are deficient in vitamin B12, have mortality at about day 20 and one of the signs is chicks with their heads between their thighs malpositioned.

There is some good info on that site which is: wwwavianweb.com/chickdeformities.html

Your killing me with those mottled Ameraucana chicks pictures! Dang!
