Have 4 (possibly 5) hens and 1 rooster. Blue egg layers from Meyer Hatchery. The maybe-hen is a single chick hatched by one of the hens. About 5 months old now and in coop with other chickens, but she/he is a bit strange. Has some rooster characteristics (longer feathers and solid coloring) and did a bit of crowing about a month ago, but has a hen-like comb and no waffles. Could a hatch gone wrong result in a trans chicken? I wanted to let the hens raise their own chicks, but brooder knowledge seems to be lacking, so decided to get an incubator. Got a Brinsea Mini II Ex. I am setting up this incubator water pump and I am not a great 3-D thinker. There is no diagram for how to connect to the water container. Do you just stick the tubing into the neck of bottle down into the water?
