    Color talks- blue copper maran over wyandotte

    Hello all! After our incubator mishap, we thoroughly cleaned and calibrated it, and added in some duck eggs. They seem to be doing well. As far as chickens go, our hen decided to go broody so we let her keep a few of her eggs (and added some duck eggs as well). Her two little chicks hatched...

    Help! Chick with wonky legs

    I have a chick that hatched last night, he hasn’t walked yet and he can’t seem to get his legs under him. He just kicks them straight out in front of him. When he does try and move the legs just kind of kick like he’s trying to scoot back. Any idea on how I can help him?
