Yeah, we stopped by yesterday but it seems we missed the sale of the chickens. It looked like they were packing up as we were leaving. I had no idea they did hatching eggs too. How do you find out about all that?

I’m looking at starting up my incubator. I would like to get some orpingtons, wyandottes, maybe even some Jersey Giants. I’m not really picky; I just have my favorites. I live in Georgia. Are there any somewhat closer states (shorter shipping) that may have something to offer?

I'll take them! My son wants Blue Orps. This is my first time bidding on the new BYC...how do we do this?

I'm not sure if I can help...but I have a hen that has a growth on her foot also. It is soft and I've tried to drain it, and all that comes out is blood and a little water. And it doesn't seem to stop. Now she has just tried to stay off of it. I've read about bumblefoot and scaley leg mites...

Is it possible that it could be a silver laced polish? I am just getting into polish...is there even a silver laced?

I'm not sure if this will be of any help...but I would think if there are more little ones than the big ones, they should be ok. I currently have 10 9wk old chicks that I want to add my 6 wk old chicks to. There are only 6 6wk old chicks. And every time I try this, the bigger chicks pick on...

Orr...go on the BYC Auction and buy the girl some eggs of a breed you might want more of. Then you both win

Quote: They were clear? Bummer I'm so sorry! How was the box when they came? But I'm glad you got some SLW. I hate that shipping can be such an influence on our hatches.

Quote: Don't panic...pointy side down. Breathe

Quote: They are so fluffy and cute! I have some in our brooder right now too. I'm glad they hatched out for you. Were the other SLW clear or quitters or could you tell?

Quote: Yay! So glad you got some Wyandottes! Do you have any pics? Thanks for keeping me posted

Quote: Thanks dretd! Your probably right on the way you figure it, but it just doesn't seem right when there are so many that may be infertile. I pulled 20 that weren't fertile on day 18. Why should our hatch rate include something that we have no control over? Ok, 62% I guess is ok...

Well, this is day 23...I started with a total of 63 eggs, 43 made it to lockdown, and 39 hatched. I have the last one in the incubator drying out. If I figured that right my hatch rate is 91%...Wow! I think that is the best one yet. I'll have another hatch go into lockdown on May 2...I've...

Well, we are officially in lockdown this am. Out of 63 eggs, 43 made it to lockdown. The other 20 were either clear or early quitters. Here we go! How exciting!
