Thanks dear! First chickie is out with six more pipped so far. I'm trying the strawberry containers for the first time. How many should I put in a box? Just glad we're getting more chicks! :) Wish they were your legbars though :) and other breeds! :)

Thank you!!! :) And good luck to everyone else hatching eggs :)

They are beautiful! I too am wondering about their hardiness and full grown size, as we tend towards dual purpose birds. What color do they lay. I'll have to look them up. I've heard the name but never seen much about them. We have 20 eggs in lockdown a few internal pips and at least one...

I too have a few obnoxiously loud hens but personally I love the roosters granted we haven't had the best luck with ours but still I love them.

Thank you Sally I certainly will :) Oh my so sorry to hear about that! Gosh! Idk what I would've done I'd be livid!

I'm there too when I can be. There are lots of chicks going to be happening around here so I'm sure I'll show. :)

Congratulations! Great pics :)

My broody silkie Mary Anne who's on her second clutch of the year is done with her hatch. All 5 eggs developed one was killed day before yesterday by an overly curious auntie it's yolk was absorbed and navel closed so it would have been viable. My guess is that it was cheeping like crazy while...

Yes thank you thank you all!! We have the central air running but not a specific dehumidifier and both incubators are in the same room. Don't tempt me lol I would love love love to get some of your birds. Oh goodness in so sorry to hear that. Where are you located? I hope she gets some more...

I though that mypetchicken (Alex) had mentioned possibly doing a giveaway or a hatch-a-long for the 4 of July or just July. Anyone heard anything about either? Also @Sally Sunshinewe are having a few issues with the humidity in our new coolerbator. The calibrated hygrometer reads about 50% with...

Idk if you saw that post someone else made about tagging someone but if not here goes. I'm on mobile so I push the @ button in the bar above the reply box and then type their user name in the pop up box. If you're on a computer you type @ and then their user name and it should work Hi Sally and...

What are you running humidity at? And do you know how old the eggs were when you set them (the ones that seem 50% air cell)? Hope we can help, sorry you went unanswered, sometimes messages can get lost in the shear number of posts especially when people are hatching or posting pictures. In the...

Final count for May left us up 14/18 chicks hatched by the kindergarten class 2/18 or so 20/24 by us after fixing our incubator fan And 3/3 With a broody silkie on 5 eggs due in a couple more days. And over 112 eggs in the home made coolerbator with another 18-25 or so in the styrobator. We...

Thank you guys so very much for the support :) today seems brighter and the healthy little ones are a blessing

Hey all update on my hatch-es lol Okay well it's been a crazy week following a crazy emotional week last week too. Ugh okay so the run down is as follows(Forgive me if there are repeats as I have forgotten what I've mentioned and haven't mentioned.) Last week after discovering the week...

Have a dozen or more mixed eggs(silkies, EE, slw, slw/Orpington mixes) in lockdown right now. Nothing from them yet. We discovered that the fan went out on our incubator and DH2B fixed it by Macgyver-ing a computer fan in, for right now but not before it looked the first two staggers of our last...

Bring a few over to me :) they're one of my dreams to own especially the whites! But I love lots of the colors! Thanks for sharing!

Thank you both very much it means a lot to have such wonderful understanding friends here.

Just went and checked on the little wry neck chick(DH2B checked on her maybe ten minutes ago) and found her wrpped in her paper towel with food out of her mouth somehow she aspirated. But chickens can't vomit and no one touched her. The paper towel wasn't so tight as to keep her from moving and...

Sorry about the book lol
