    Comment by 'Greenwolf' in article 'Trouble-shooting when your eggs don't hatch.'

    I actually have a new incubator with a humidity monitor. Yay! I am trying dry hatching chicks for the first time. Why? Because when I put them in the incubator the humidity level was through the roof. There's no vent on My incubator so I fussed and fiddled around and slid a thin piece of bamboo...

    She was actually molting at the time. She laid an egg after the ordeal when she was back in main pop. We have a brooding box that my hubby made a few years ago that we keep the incubator chicks in during transition from the house to main population. It was designed to keep a mama bird and her...

    Funny! My rottie-lab cross is good at herding, thinks she is the terror of the neighborhood and is terrified of cats and thunderstorms!

    Need Help!! Chickens being killed!

    All she has to be willing to do is bark. I don't know if you get raccoons? If there is no signs of digging a raccoon can and will go over a fence and kill your chickens. The chickens may be too big for a raccoon to take over the fence. Also a young falcon or bird of prey that can't take the...

    OMG! You found Rocket! How'd he get there?!:lau I have a little boy about 4 months old with the same markings. He's part banty and leghorn. I call him Rocket. Good that you have him. Does he go in with the other chickens or is he your first rescue?

    LOL! Ok, separate her for the weekend at least. If you have a large crate, or something like that that you can close the door on that would be best. Massage her her at least three times a day. Remember, if you have her in a crate enclosed, you can keep her in your laundry room or garage for...

    The tomato juice helps things get moving I understand. It literally made Poppy poop. A LOT! If the garage sales are still out in your area try and get a dog crate for her, a second hand rabbit hutch would be ideal. She won't be happy, but the more you can isolate her from solid food the better...

    Tomato juice, solid coconut oil, an egg and a tablespoon or two of yogurt. Mix it up and give her a quarter to half a cup every day, massage her SEVERAL TIMES A DAY, EVERY DAY!!! It will break up and go away unless she has an obstruction somewhere else but the liquid diet is your best bet...

    Need Help!! Chickens being killed!

    I am so sorry! That is just so crappy!! I lost seven birds in '22, before my puppy was old enough to be left alone with the birds and before she knew her job. Three were fox and four were human. We had a vagrant living in the woods in our subdivision. That was creepy! This looks like a fox or a...

    Hi from North Central AB!! Best advice: walk before you run! Have a couple of Alberta winters with them, see how they do, see how much fun they are to feed and care for in -35. If you are still addicted to the chicken life and they prove to throw good chicks then go hard. Watch for changes in...

    Poor baby! I just went through this with My girl Poppy, She was known formerly as Miss Piggy but after the second round of impacted crop within a few weeks of treating the first one I renamed her to something with different energy. Lol! With Poppy I gave her a lot of yogurt and other...
