    Hatchery stock breeds that go broody

    I also have one that is starting to go broody. I thought I bought all breeds that don't, but she is staying in the coop and nesting box, having a fit when I take the eggs. Going to give her another day or two and make sure that is her problem before I take action.

    Normal Poop?

    Is this a Roo? Today it looked like red waddles coming In. Didn't get any pics of them today. These are from a couple of days ago. Was trying to get pics of their eye progress. This one was 100% today, completely. He/she had swollen eyes as well a week ago.

    Normal Poop?

    It was a small hatchery that didn't offer vaccination. I didn't realize how important it would be until I got them home. It has been a learning experience. That is for sure. Hate I lost four, I got really attached to them quickly. But I was bound and determined after losing them to save the...
