didnt you know we were all crazies??

Would you believe the 'bator's already fired up? Nothing in it but air; just making sure everything's working as it should be...don't need no surprises in the middle of a hatch.

Wouldn't have even known they were there if I hadn't turned it a bit. What's the chances if I leave it untouched from here out there will be more? I did find another one and posted on your mushroom site. On drought years would it help to water the pile during normal rainy season? They are very good by the way. Only couple things better.

YUMMMSSS!!!!
hmmm i wonder if i have all the ingredients

Good morning everyone!!!

I have a poor little chick that just hatched that has it's head arched all the way back, so it keeps tipping over. It's dry, so it was one that hatched around midnight - and I didn't notice any problems the next 6 or 7 times I checked last night. First noticed it just now (7am).

I'm guessing this is Wry neck - what would cause it in a newly hatched chick and is it worth trying to save? I will NOT have time or the ability to assist this chick at all today or tomorrow.

I'm leaving for work in 30 minutes and won't be home again until probably 8 tonight.

Is it better to cull it?
vitamins in water for now, and cull if it doesnt get better

Thanks, from everything I read, that's probably the best solution. I don't want it to suffer today.



Everyone is staying in the brooder. First chicks was 10 last night. I'll run home at lunch to move them all. I'll take care of chickie then.

Bummers....
