Morning....I started eggs on a Wednesday afternoon and added more on Friday afternoon. What would be the best day of the week to take the eggs out of the turner? Is there a happy medium? Thursday is day 21 Thanks Tink

Have a question..... I put eggs in an incubator on a Wed afternoon. Then we added more on Friday afternoon. When do you think I should take them out of the turner? Is there a happy medium? Thanks

Hey Amy Will you have any Guinea eggs for sale soon? Incubator is on at school and just looking for some eggs Thanks Tink

Any ideas? Quote:

Morning....Doesnt seem to be an egg...at least I don't think so. Her bum looks fine and I can't feel anything. They are on a good diet and I give them DE with their food so wouldn't that take care of worms? It is dark out and I have to be at work early so I will have to check on her this...

Okay SC friends: I have a hen that is slowly walking around with her tail down and then sitting on the ground. Any ideas? Nothing hanging out....no wounds....she looks ok other than her tail being down. Thanks in advance for the advise...Tink

We have a pit that we trained to guard our chickens. When we had babies in the house, we told him that they were his babies. We held the chicks and he smelled them and licked them and we kept saying that they were his babies. He now protected them and he will get in the middle of them when they...

Thanks everyone. I think I will let her graze for a few hours each day for a while. Tummy aches are not fun. Tink

Thanks eve4ryone for your advice. I think she is pretty smart but I would hate for her to get sick. Tink

So i think you are saying she will regulate herself and stop before she makes herself sick? That is my concern..Thanks for the info so far

We are getting ready to let our goat loose in the pasture.She has been in a pen with daily feedings of goats grains, hay and corn. The pasture is full of natural greens, grass and trees. Should we ease her into this or will she regulate herself? Thanks

I posted on here...maybe you missed it. He turned out beautiful. I gave him to a friend from school who has 3 children and they are just getting into chickens. Her son wants to maybe do some 4H shows. I think I have your phone number somewhere...I can text you a picture of him. I have never...

Red Bug...... I wish you lived closer too. I would love to get some of your eggs to incubate. I work at a preschool and we incubate eggs for the kids to watch. I was going to get some from Joycats but we never got together. I need to contact her again. The children really love coming into the...

Susanne...Sorry about the sting. When I was a kid I always thought everyone swelled up like a balloon. It wasn't til I was an adult that I realized my swelling wasnt normal. I probably should carry some kind of anti swell thing...but I don't. Never had trouble breathing.....just blow up like a...

Hey everyone....Does anyone know of a processer here in the upstate to take birds to? We have birds to process and we have never done it before. Or maybe someone who would come to our house and teach us.... Tink

Happy Sunday... I use DE to control the flies. There seems to be many opinions about DE. All I know is that it works really well for me. I layer it with the wood shavings in the coop and sprinkle it in the chicken yard. Now because my chickens are free range during the day...I cant sprinkle the...

Joycats.... I would like to get some guinea eggs from you to incubate at work. The children love to watch them hatch and then they come and visit them in my office for weeks. They get concerned when I dont bring them to work!! Also, how much would you charge for some peacock eggs to incubate...

My chickens eat our fire ants. Another thing you can do without poisening your yard is to pour boiling water on the nest. Gone!!! Works great. I am off to plant 27 strawberry plants before the weather starts. Tink

Hey everyone....Beautiful Saturday So, Amy....remember the baby you gave me so my little one wouldn't be lonely? She was so tiny and cute. I took them to work and everyone loved the feathers on her feet. So we decided to name her "Lady Gaga"! Lady Gaga was so sweet....all of the children came...
