Hi so I have a chick that was in the process of hatching but mom abandoned it and the rest of the unhatched eggs. Well it made absolutely no progress in 24 hrs and I noticed maggots all over the poor thing in its shell. The membrane was all dried out and I didn’t know what to do. I helped it...
Hi, I have a hen that’s been hatching out some eggs, there are 9 total and all from different hens. She hatched out 4 so far. One chick a day it seems. It’s been a week now since the last hatched and I have one in the process that I had to bring inside because the flies kept landing on it. But...

Okay a little bit of a longish story. We had some neighbors that had free range guinea fowl, neighbors passed away and birds were abandoned to roam free. Slowing the flock started to dwindle until there were only 3 left and they migrated into my flock of chickens during the day. 2 ended up...
