I have a request.................We have a customer who wants Wheaten and Lavender AM's

Can anyone help us out with some eggs to set for them? Will do a split order between the colors for them

my little blue silkie went broody last week I gave her a few eggs. Needless to say the test of the lav orps and blue coppers is official! they are all growing with Ms Blue. This is her first broodiness for me. I bought her and they said she was about 7-9 months old. ( she was in with a bunch of others and that is the estimated age for the whole group). Well she has been a laying machine since I brought her home and we have some of her babies too.
SO, I will be starting collecting and going down the list of those that claimed lav orp eggs for spring. So you may get your eggs before spring!
ALSO, my porcelain silkie, Priscilla aka Prissy! FINALLY laid her first egg! she is ONLY 14 months!!!!! Talk about late bloomer! and today when she laid her second egg the WHOLE farm heard about it!

she squaked and carried on like no one's business and announcing the Priss has laid. it was so funny.

Early eggs that good

exactly what's she is doing.I've got treatment for that. she began with droopy wings, she is almost one

How old is she? Is she hunched in and keeping her feathers really puffed up? I have had younger birds with cocci stop eating, get better temporarily with meds and vitamins, then take a turn for the worst. Do you have a pic you can post? Any other symptoms such as respiratory issues?

Quail eggs, anyone?

My severely overloaded incubator...

Anyone ever have to stack eggs like that? I have talked to two people who said it will work just fine, but I am super nervous about the eggs getting caught between the racks and getting crushed.

Yeaaaahh. 110 quail eggs and 15 buff leghorn eggs. :/ I didn't plan on getting them both at the same time, just happened to work that way. I might break down and buy a turner for my still air hatcher- but I don't like to hatch chicks in the hovabator genesis, so it stays as clean as possible. I think after I build one more breeder coop, I am going to start saving for a new forced air incubator. I don't plan on ever setting this many eggs again though!!
