INDIANA BYC'ers HERE!

Hey guys, my 7 week olds have weird poo. It looks like undigested crumbles, but its rubbery. I was thinking tape worm segments but they don't seem wormy. Here is a picture. Sorry gross I know.

Calling the comb connoisseurs--
This is Cher, our 9/10 week old blue sizzle. If you look closely, you can see her comb. Sorry it's so hard to see the black comb on the gray feathers. She wouldn't stand still for me to zoom in on it.
Any ideas if this is the comb of a roo?

This is baby Cher’s first solo video. We took her away from her sister, and she's unhappy about it.
Her feathers are soooo soft.

They look the same today. I think I may give them a mash or switch to chick starter fow awhile

That's my mantra, and the primary mode of my existence.


ETA I just bit my tongue while eating my lunch. Ow.

Our check in is next Thursday (and the kids are still finishing up projects..........which is funny, because EVERY year we say, "Next year will be different, next year we'll be done and ready way ahead of time with things like the rockets, etc" -- and then it becomes the same mad rush EVERY year

) and then dog and English horse showing over the weekend before the fair actually opens on Monday -- I am 99.9% sure that DS will do poultry next year, he has really gotten into this whole chicken thing with me, which I couldn't be happier about as we have never really had "our thing" before that we could share like DD and I do with the horses.

The next incubator I get, I am going all out (well I would really get a cabinet if I was doing that but.....). I want a nicer, more reliable one. I think I'm going to get a Hova bator Genesis. The one I want comes with egg turners and they candler. At least this way I won't have to worry as much about the temperature getting messed up by someone

If you want to try a 1588 out I'm selling mine. It was used for 1 hatching season and is in great shape. BUT in all truthfulness the one Racin posted is much easier to clean. I don't really have a good way to ship the incubator and turner (sorry no candler as I still use my flashlight). We plan to make it to the chickenfest and the show in Lebanon. We might make it to the Columbus fair grounds depending on weather.

As for why I'm selling it, I am considering getting a hatcher and would like to put the money towards the cost of the hatcher. Also it is hard for me to clean the incubator as we changed our shower head to a stationary head instead of a shower head on a cord.

Thanks, but I don't plan on going towards that area until Lebanon. And I want to by one before then. I like te
Hova bator better looking at it. I understand cleaning will be hard, but the ones I have now are huge pains in the butt
