You can hardly call this research... but here is a cool article to look into, and maybe try sometime. https://www.fresheggsdaily.blog/2016/04/the-secret-to-hatching-hens-not-roosters.html

I’ve seen a few people post that article on here, and I can say for sure it isn’t factual. That whole blog is full of stuff you would hear around Facebook. I wouldn’t trust them ever, not for anything that requires basic scientific knowledge that is. Just another homesteader wishing to share the things they heard around town, nothing new. All of the blogs are a bit annoying when you are trying to find sources, but you can’t stop someone who thinks they uncovered whether or not the world exists.You can hardly call this research... but here is a cool article to look into, and maybe try sometime. try.https://www.fresheggsdaily.blog/2016/04/the-secret-to-hatching-hens-not-roosters.html
First, locate the picture you want to use. You can then download it. After it’s saved to your computer or mobile device, you can upload it like you would any other picture. Hope that helpedHay! I remember that thread... That was me! I agree, I wouldn't trust it, just thought I would share, mabey try it to see how it works. Again, I find all sorts of faulty evidence, and guesses on that blog. Also how did you upload that profile pic, I want something with the same message, but I'm not sure how to upload it.
We all have something we wish was invented to make chicken keeping better, and I was wondering what yours were. I have to clean the shavings in my coop with a broom and a tub, sweeping out all the shavings. I then have to scrub the floor on my hands and knees, all because my family won't let me get a pitchfork! What are yours, I'm interested to find out!
I wouldn't use shavings, I tried several different shavings from various places, which were intended for coups, and yet they would still mat up, weren't particularly great at wicking moisture, and always created an inane amount of dust. Straw is an incredibly good option for bedding because it allows for easier moisture wicking (due to being hallow), less dust, and its also not terribly hard to remove poops from them, prolonging bedding use. My coup always smelled least ammonia-y with straw, or even better yet, sand.
