I am sorry to bust in on this thread but I can not remember how to post a new thread I don't see any blue button in the upper left corner thank you very much for any help S

Hi do you still work with cream leg bars? I am in vt and I would like to buy some eggs. Thanks

Thanks, I will check that out. I find the Ecoglow works well but I have had 2 fall apart one right out of the box. It does not get very hot but I have never had a problem with the temp. I do use a supplemental hear light if the room is below 50 degrees, though.

Thanks for your input. I am trying my first dry hatch at the moment. I will check out the Cutler Center.

Not so great customer service in my opinion. If the unit breaks before the warranty is up I have had no luck getting it replaced. The product itself is very good.

Humidity control and Auto turning are a must. What is your favorite? Thanks!

What is the incubation period for an Australian Spotted? Thanks!

Let us know how it goes with the Broody- I hope it works out.

Good point! I'm glad you mentioned that.

Thanks for sharing. Do you think mice or rats will be attracted to this system? That's my only concern. It seems so handy!

I have never given chicks to a broody before but I have many friends that have and it seems to mostly work. Some say to slip them under at night in the dark. Last summer ne neighbor's hen had been broody a few days and I had 3 day old keets. Neighbor showed the chicks to the broody and the...

Thank you for pointing out FOOD AND WATER is crucial. I have edited my post. I actually did read that and so "Followed the Directions" But yes its Horrible advice to pass on and not at all healthy to the bird. Luckily, I only did it 1x for a few hours with no ill effects. Thanks for the...

Thanks for the pictures and sharing your experience with us!

There are so many way to do this. Everyone has there own style one thing I think is crucial is to make sure they are almost the same size as the birds you have now. Also prior to the big mix in if they can be in the same run together but separated so they can check each other our for a few...

I started with a $99 foam incubator from Agway. I had to turn the eggs myself and the humidity was hard to regulate but i got to be a pretty good hatcher with it. Warning I had to tweek it alot and I would often wake up in the middle of the night to see if it was working ok. I finally moved up...

I'm sorry for your loss. Its hard being responsible for chickens. It sounds like you did what you could. I hope it goes well from here on out.

How long has she been broody? If its just a day or two she may come out of it. Collect the eggs as often as you can. Though a very broody hen will not care if there is anything to set. when I have a broody I take her out of the nest box whenever I can and put her in a different spot to...
