well I had a mircale hatch today

on day 14 I candled eggs and accidently broke one(craked the shell at the top), in an effort to save the developing chick, I dampened a piece of paper towel and smoothed it over the egg, in the bator the paper towel dried slightly and stuck to the egg nicely. today day 23. the egg finally hatched and a healthy baby cochin is now chirpping away in the bator

i am amazed!

Good to know! Thanks for sharing!

Hello fellow North Carolinians! We are from Greensboro...anyone else from the Boro? Chickens have been apart of our lives for about two years now so we are learning so much from the experienced members! Found the Easter Hatchalong thread the first of March sooo babies are on the way

...and then looking around found this thread!

I enjoyed WCA today! It's been so long since I have taken the time to go. I need to do it more often. Chicken People are the best to be around.

Good evening all,

I just bought two rescue birds home and put them in the new coop (the chicks have a while before they can use it), and even though it rained most of today, the birds won't stay in the coop and now they are rather wet. I understand that fresh air, grass etc is new to them, but I'm concerned that they will get sick.

I covered the coop and most of the run with heavy plastic. Will that work to help keep them warm?
