Tonight when we were bringing in our older chicks for the night, one of my silkies, ran into a piece of wire in the back of the brooder, that i think got kicked in by one of my kids. At first i didnt think there was much to worry about becuase it looked like she hurt her eye lid, not the actual...
Thanks I think i will have to try it. I am a sissy when it comes to babies. I cant kill em, but dont want to watch them suffer either. If i cant figure something out i am going to have to have my nirghbor come and end their suffering.
This morning i got my chicks in from Ideal, and as a whole i am impressed. BUt i do have a problem with a few of them. They have what i think is spaddled legs I am not sure. They cannot get their legs under themselves at all, and cant get aroung to the food and water. Is their anythign i can do...

This isn't true, I'm sorry, I hate to be argumentative.
I do not dispute the results your friend obtained. However, I have no way of checking all the factors influencing the hatches.
What I do know, is that the water will NOT evaporate from these eggs, even if you cut the top off, in...

I see that, and as I said, the idea is interesting.
Stop for a moment and consider though the area of the trays that GQF provide to control the humidity effectively. You will see that you would have to fill the egg turner with *water eggs* to provide similar results.
I am not knocking...
Cochins are awesome they are incredibly calm, and they do have many colors. But it is my experience that they ar not heavy layers. if you want a bred that is good for laying and meat i would go with the plymoth rocks.
You know you shouldnt ask us to pick just one. I think everyone is like me...
Thats why if you are donating stuff like this you can go and give it to th people personally. Then their name gets put on it, and you give them even more joy by personally showing that you care about them.
We have done this before, and we brought along a tame chicken and our dog to visit. They...
I will watch it this afternoon. IN the next town away from us a lady got busted for running one of these. I guess she had dead puppies strung out everywhere, and a small female dog that was blind becuas her eye got damaged somehow, and the lady didnt take her to the vet. So they had to remove...
I would give it to a nursing home. I know from exprience that the old folks dont often get decent soaps. Family forgets, they cant afford it, and th nursing homes usually buy the cheapst junk they can find, ours had one type of soap. It was supposed to be for the whole body including their hair...
Well you all have become my friends. I am so happy to see that there are so many brothers and sisters in Christ here. And I am in debt to you all. God bless you all.
I want to take a few minutes to sit down and thank you all for the prayers you sent for our family over the last couple months. I honestly think that I couldnt have made it through it as well as I did if it wasnt for all of you here to talk to. And I believe that you prayers helped in make me...
WOW thats a lot of chicks to hatch at one time. Looks like you know what your doing. I just wish I was you, those babies are so cute I want to pick them up and give them a good cuddle.
And do any of you have a blind weather man to? OUrs just forcasted that today was going to be partly cloudy. And its been snowing like crazy on and off all day today.
Why do you have to live so far away? I never get in on any of this type of thing, you all live so far away. It wont take long for you to find them a ne home though. Good luck
After such a wonderful week we had with spring type weather, I got really depressed to have it start snowing yesterday, and today. I really love the warmer weather, and am tired of being cooped up in the house all the time.I am ready to throw out the snow boots and throw on some shorts. Anyone else?
