He kept moving his head, silly boy. You can also see one of the CCL girls in the back, as well as my Aloha chick, a silkie, and two golden-laced wyandottes.

Just moved my chicks to the big-girl coop today. They seem to be doing ok out there so far. Love my cream legbar cockerel; he's SOOO cute.

my aunt is in Downey, ID. I'm at my sister's place an hour away

My aunt just lost most of her flock. She found pieces of chickens in her henhouse. She only has two old hens and two roosters left. Any clue what leaves pieces? Thought I'd offer to incubate any eggs she can get from the older hens. What's the longest we can save them? 10 days?

How long do I leave legs tied for splay-leg

Here are my 3 chicks, got 1 splay-leg. Hopefully it's legs correct themselves with the bandaid.

My hatch might be done. Float tested the remaining eggs and found 3 DIS, probably the heat. The last two eggs stay for a couple extra days as I think they were wiggling during the float test.

Got a total of 3 babies out. Had a temperature spike today, hot day caused house to warm up. No signs of the other 5 eggs hatching so far, might've been baked from the heat wave :(. On the bright side, I have a lovely trio of ameraucanas- one each blue, black, and splash

Boo! Can't upload pictures on my phone . Long day sanding floors and going to my previous year's students graduation. Got a good gift: two pips! Dumb phone won't let me upload the picture

So busy with fixing up my house to sell that I would've forgotten about lock-down without a reminder on my Google calendar. Got 8 eggs on lock-down now, hoping for 6 ameraucana and 2 blrw. Good thing I have awesome family; my aunt will care for my chickens until I get another job and a house. My...

ain't they cute? Mine don't take long to make a mess either, but they have a great time doing it.

Update on my may 7 hatch: 6/9 hatched. 2 quitters 1 malposition. Took a quick peak at my last 10 eggs on day 12, 2 blood-rings 8 veining. Really proud of my Easter HAL chicks today. Didn't notice until today how much the ameraucana pullet's beard & muff was coming in; so cute! Also caught my...

My sticky chick made it so far! Super happy with my hatch-rate on those isbar eggs, though only 1 of the Marsh Daisy hatched.

so sorry for your loss. Unfortunately some mysteries never get solved. Lost 5 full-grown pullets that way in Feb when they were at a friend's place to be watched while I was out of town. They were fine Friday and I went in Sat morning to check and discovered the same thing, just feathers. My...

I have 5/5 isbars hatched!!!!! One had trouble, sticky chick. Have given it vitamins and probiotic. Poor thing is still weak. Hope it pulls through! Only have 1/4 Marsh Daisy eggs but 2 I am 90% sure quit before lock-down. The last one may still hatch, but no sign yet. Will leave all 3 in for...

Two of my newbies

Grr!! Byc is buggy. Can't get onto it on my computer, and I've checked my computer 2 times for viruses and malware. Anyone else having issues? Also can no longer upload pics from phone. On a brighter note I came home to 4 new babies instead of just 1. https://goo.gl/photos/DGn58tc6PHM4mANv7...
