    Wet vs Dry Hatch

    I'm in Arkansas and I always dry incubate. Humidity here is so high they drowned if I don't. I do bump up the humidity once we go into lockdown to about 60%.

    American serama thread!

    I have 3 month old cockeral that is 4.5 oz. Think he'll breed? 9-10 oz hens dwarf him.

    Anyone like the brinsea brooder plate?

    I hate it and a won't use it for chicks under 2 weeks old. Couldn't control pasty butt in my chicks. Never had that problem with heat lamps. Than I realised their drinking water wasn't staying warm like baby chicks need it to be..went back to heat lamps for first 2 weeks. No more pasty butt.

    Good pet ducks?

    Golden 300. They are calm, don't make a lot of noise. They lay close to 290 eggs a year. Males get 4.5-5# nice eating size if you're into that sort of thing, I'm not. 2nd generation are a beautiful variety of colors that continue to lay well. Pictures are of 2 ducklings from my last hatch.
