@Saris those are going to be some pretty chickens!

 

[TheChickenQueen]

parents are ALOT harder to convince! school projects

If I wasn't mostly homeschooled, then that might work! Alas when you have as many birds as I somehow acquired this spring, you begin to think it might not be very wise to add more at the moment without causing some disagreements.

I am, going to wait till after these hatch

I chose it for my business! I figured it would be hilarious to have a soap company called Hippie Stink that sold all-natural organic products, and when I did research to see if anyone had the same idea nothing popped up and I grabbed it.

As for my obsession with herbs, I'm what's known as a rootworker/conjure woman in the US South. I got voodoo and hoodoo and things I ain't even tried!

ahhhhhhhaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh nowww that makes SENSEEEEE muwahhahha!!!!!

Momma hen on 4 eggs, in the air cells!

 

[prizepete]

you will be needing it soon!!!!

what color is the poop? there is no blood? does it smell really bad? are you fermenting feed? are handling her a lot? I hope she didnt pick up cocci from a family pet or from your shoes or other areas. it can be anywhere esp if its been rainy and wet. do you have any human probotics? pumpkin can help with the gutt as well, just a bite or two, three times a day is all. She is a bit old for pasty butt do you feed he any treats? if so dont. I only feed medicated chick starter if I am not fermenting (which I havent since I had gotten sick) cocci is everywhere it lives everywhere, and people carry on their shoes from others anywhere we go.

the link to our fb page is on my profile page she has a ton of new size A B stock, that is why she is having the fertility issues, HarmonyAnn is so mad at me right now.... we will know it a few days how many that jumped in this bator are fertile or not. what a bummer I just dont know what to do. the little turds!!! I thought it was age, but they are two months older now, they should be more fertile!! I told her I am going to have her choose her favs and sell the majority off and tell her to get another breed, she flipped last night saying I ruined her frizzles, she still has lovely frizzles, just that she doesnt get the higher amount of frizzles at hatch any more. she gets more straights like everyone else, and everyone AND HER wants frizzle frizzle frizzle... GRRRRRR but she wont get rid of her straight feathered hens either!! she is 10 -11 soon but trying to work with her is like working with a child.... oh yeah she is a child

spun?



stupid serama! I knew it! now all these dumb things that jumped in the bator are non jumpers!!! uggggggg harmonyann is gonna be so mad!!!!!
I dont know what to do!!!! with her flock of littles!!!!!
how many CCL are viable, I know most are the mix green/blues


like as in staggering?

omg ha ha ha hahhahhahhahhahhaa yes why did you use hippiestink please tell us??? you crack me up

you dont need stock! use one from some other brand or a computer fan, think out of the box

its not bloody. its actually not happening right now. its normal colored and almost normal consistency. if it acts up again i will try something else but this is ok

I wanted to show you what I use for my chicks because of the serama and their "lifted butt" they have a better tendency to get pasty butt the first few days of life.

I use grow gel, sometimes I even put it in the bator as the first several hatch,because the eggs can be of all sizes some tend to hatch hours earlier than others, and I like to keep as many chicks in the bator as I can to get them all to hatch as quickly and get it over and done with, so they get hungry and the grow gel gives them a great start in life and helps give them something to do, but I put marbles in it so they dont get stuck in it of course! I make enough to make about a teaspoon or two when it has water in it, then let them finish it up in the brooder. I add this pro vits to the waterer.......


Anyways this is what they get in their waterer...... I know it doesnt look like a lot is in there, but it goes a long way in chick waterers and I only give it the first two weeks and then I add AVC into their water WELL worth the money, and they grow and feather faster! I swear by this stuff!! I never loose chicks in the brooder! but mind you I DO NOT ASSIST CHICK HATCHING EITHER!!! BECAUSE WE SELL CHICKS!
