bantam eggs

Are you ready to hatch some eggs? We have highly fertile eggs from our mixed flock of beautiful and resilient birds. Breeds in our flock: Old-line of a Bantam Silkie mix(hens and roosters), Easter Eggers(hens and roosters), Silverlaced Wyandottes (hens and roosters), Rhode Island Red (hens)...

I have a broody golden sebright x light brahma bantam cross. She’s a tiny little hen and she’s been laying on 5 eggs for about four days. But today, someone layed an egg in her nesting box and she took it. And since I had an egg I really wanted to hatch and she had already taken the one from...

Saturn, my golden laced sebright bantam x light brahma bantam cross has gone broody just last night. As you can imagine, she’s a tiny thing. And I didnt get a chance to look that well as I didn’t want to disturb her, but I think she’s sitting on about six eggs? Possibly a couple bantams, a few...

I have attached a picture of the egg in my incubator. I’m worried she won’t be able to get out because the pip is at the bottom. I’m so scared because this is my first time hatching eggs. Should I turn the egg? Will it be ok?? (Also this is a bantam egg) you can barely see the little hole it...

Hi Everyone! I'm a Mama to my first flock of 6, 4 Easter Eggers, and 2 Bantams, a Porcelain D'uccle and a Mille Fleur. They are about 22 weeks, and so far, four are laying. I never thought chickens could be so much fun, with their unique personalities. They have become like my therapy animals...

When did your bantam cochins start laying? Mine is 13 weeks old with bright red comb and wattles, and she squats when I put my hand over her back. I wasn't expecting eggs anytime soon because I've heard that cochins take a long time to mature, but she appears to be ready to lay. Is it possible...

My bantam Cochin is laying strange eggs. She is just over 1 year old. Her eggs have been normal until recent weeks. Now she lays a large (for her) egg with blood on it and a weird seam-like crack towards the pointy end. I can feel the crack when I run my fingernail across it. The shell is not...

My kitchen scale is broken, I had used it to weigh my chickens a while back and well.. they freaked out and broke it :hmm I have never tried to use bantam eggs in recipes, my first thought was just to weigh them and compare... but yeah, scale won't read anything. So as the title says, how many...

It’s my first time incubating Bantam eggs. I have hatched standard breeds and duck eggs before. All my Bantams are developing at the same rate except for one. It has less yolk left and it seems like it could be two days ahead of the others and the others seem to be a day ahead of the standards...

Hi everyone! I'm on day 19 of my bantam eggs and yesterday was lockdown, I have a separate homemade still-air styrofoam incubator for lockdown. I moved them from my HHD forced air incubator to the homemade one. The temperature and humidity weren't going up before lockdown. So I changed the...

In spring, one of our hens named Mouse is going to go broody so I thought I'd get her some hatching eggs. And I know she'll go broody because she's a Bantam Silkie/Cochin mix. She's our best mother hen so I know she'll love and protect them. If you are planning selling some hatching eggs at the...

Hello everyone! :) My good friend, who shall be named the Egg Man, delivered these to me yesterday: I set all of the eggs on 5/23/18. Some of the bantam eggs: Hopefully I will have a good hatch. We'll just have to wait and see :) The ducks are mixed Ancona and Pekin. The bantams I have...

I rescued 2 bantam eggs when my Cochin quit being broody. Unfortunately, I am a terrible judge on what day these eggs are on. I compared to the many charts across the internet, and I can't figure it out for sure. I am too worried I'll kill them by deciding wrong. What is the earliest an egg can...

Or Maybe my friend i are crazy with this conclusion? Lol still have yet to hatch one standard size egg!!!

A few weeks ago I decided I should try to incubate my hens eggs so I added a few eggs that my Hen had laid into my incubator and just yesterday it pipped out a small hole out of the egg and it’s been like that for two full days and I’m not sure If I should help it out or leave it in? :) I’m...

BIN: ship 6/5/2017 week. Silkies are laying very well, but I don't need to set any more for babies right now. THIS will be a mix of what is available and 12+ means extras when available. I do anticipate being to include extras but no guarantee of this. It depends on the hens. As of today all...
