@junior67 , lovely birds! @gimmie birdies your eggs are simply marvelous. I want maran eggs so badly, but I only hen passed before laying age. I'll have to go out and get some pics for you all. I'm down to 7 of my 15 rare breed eggs, but the ones I have left are super sweet. 4 of the 7 are...

I'm never quite sure until they're older, but I believe I got 5 pullets and 5 cockerels. I need to go get pics.

I'll get some pics! His name is Nickolai and he has a foot issue (?). I am SO envious of that BLRW mix. I was supposed to get two BLRWs in my July eggs, but I didn't get any. That was the one breed that I absolutely wanted to hatch! Ugh.

Wow, that Silverudd looks just like one of my June mutts!

Haha, thanks! Loki is very sweet, and I think she's a hen. @FreedomFarm13 , my marans have huge combs too! Is that just normal?

I sure hope she's not a roo, and I hope you get what you want, although a few extra roos can't really hurt, can they? I could just get more hens... Forgot ages. Mine are about three weeks old (4 for the guineas) and I have some 8 weekers in the pen. I was supposed to get three copper marans, but...

I shouldn't have gotten any oliveggers. I guess I'll just have to see.

@Gammas Bearded Babies Your little silkies are so adorable! Here's pics of my hatch. I think all of my faves are roosters. I didn't get blue laced red W-dottes like I was supposed to, my Legbar is a roo, and I can't even tell what chicks are what, even with pictures. Who knows what I got, other...

I'm guessing the chick you are referring to is the one in the middle looking at the camera? I doesn't look like a brahma to me, but I've only had dark brahmas, so I don't know.

No worries. I'm glad you're feeling better. :) I had one keet hatch yesterday, one day late, and the other two have just finished internally pipping. Behind in development. Temperature fluctuations. I'll post pictures soon. :D

I also have a hatch Sunday - Tuesday, most likely. I have three out of four guineas left. One has been rocking around.

She was standing this morning! Huge improvment. She's back to sleeping now, but I will continue my 'fluid therapy'. :D

Would you really sell just 2 -3 chicks? I hope your rooster is doing better. :)

How many do you have hatching?

Got it. I'll give her some tonight. Yeah, good to be cautious. ;)

It has one gram of sugar in a tablet about half a centimeter thick and the size of a nickel. I'm hesitant to put her back in because 1) I have a few more eggs in there, 2) I think the issue is she's not drinking enough because of her leg situation. She's just sleeping whenever she's held. She's...

I fear I might lose a maran, too. Gave her some human electrolytes and egg yolk. She's very sleepy, and her legs don't seem to work right. She cheeps every now and then. Almost threw herself off the counter while i was scrambling eggs. Suggestions?

@OzarkCountryGirl , you wouldn't happen to have any pictures of candling guinea eggs on Day 24, would you? I can't find any online, and I think my humidity is too high. :barnie

Well, what do you raise? There are so many different combos.
