Looking to start raising these, and can't find any stock! Let me know what you have, where you are located, and if you will ship. Thanks:)

So last week, I woke up to an incubator that was not running (it's a forced air LG) and at 72 degrees. This was at day 7. Happened again at day 10 (this time, I tackled the root problem). Both times, I reset the circuit breaker, and kept on like nothing happened (I am turning them by hand 3x a...

Received four brown hatching eggs for free from a gal that didn't even know she had a Roo in the mix until just recently! Only two hatched (other two were yolkers), the yellow chick on the left hatched three days earlier than the gray colored fellow on the right even though they were set at the...

This is the first time we are raising chickens. Bought four, two-day old white rock chicks from a farmer on June 21st (which makes them two weeks old right now). During the first week, one chick was obviously slower than the other ones, slept more and was less active. This same chick did not...
