Hi all! I fell in love with a game hen that flew into my father-in-law's yard. He asked all of his neighbors and no one knew where she came from. Everyday I would drop by his house to check on her and feed her. One day, Dad said that he would build me a coop at my house if I would take her home. She was pooping all over his patio and he was tired of it. :) So, we built her a coop out of recycled materials and brought her home. We have had her now for 2 months and she just started laying eggs! My husband said that I would have to get rid of her if she didn't lay any eggs. She must have heard him. :) I have been researching everything I can find about chicken raising and found your site!
I ordered 10 barred rock chicken hatching eggs through the mail on Friday. They should be here by tomorrow and I can't get my incubator to stay at 100*. What do I do?
 
Welcome to the fourm!!! glad to have you!

That's exciting about the eggs!! Barred rocks are pretty cool birds!
