    What is best to use as a wormer for my girls????

    Hello Everyone. I would like to worm my girls tonight and this is what I have on hand. I have safeguard (25gram paste 10%) and Ivermectin pour on for cattle (5mg/ml). I think I used the ivermectin in the past as it was recommended to kill lice too. Any suggestions? Dosages would also be very...

    Incubator Humidity for French Black Copper Marans Eggs

    I had 17 Olive Eggers (French Copper Maran and Americauna) in the bator last week. 9 hatched, 3 were duds and the rest died as full term chicks in their shell. After much research, I think I may have drowned them by having my humidity too high during the first 18 days of incubation. I had 50-65...

    Help- I MUST have done something wrong.....

    I filled the trenches and my humidity was 50-60% on days 1-18. After reading some of the forum responses to humidity I think that may have been what killed them. They pipped internally and there was a bunch of water in the air cell and they drowned. I'm starting another batch Monday. I'm going...

    Help- I MUST have done something wrong.....

    Thanks. When using the balloons....do you still fill up the bottom trenches with water and just add the balloon to the bator? Next hatch, I will turn down my temp.

    Help- I MUST have done something wrong.....

    This is probably a dumb question... but if you take them out of the bator to candle/float test (after the due date) does it matter if they are put back in a different position??

    Help- I MUST have done something wrong.....

    Great thinking....with the balloon! I originally started my bator at 99.5 degrees. Then I read somewhere that the still air incubators should be run higher....at 101-102. Is this incorrect?

    Help- I MUST have done something wrong.....

    Yes, I'm wondering if there may have been a minuscule hole in the eggs and I drowned them. I candled them but only saw large masses without any movement. Do you always see movement when candling (if they are alive?)

    Help- I MUST have done something wrong.....

    I would LOVE some advice. I just completed my first hatch. I got 11 chicks out of 19 fertile eggs which I believe is about 55%. The thing that is killing me is that I eggtopsied the remaining 8 eggs today and discovered all we full grown chicken fetuses but were all dead. I candled and float...

    Messy Vent??

    This thread was just what I was looking for. One of hens had poop build up under her vent and I wasn't sure how to get it off. I tried cutting it but it made me nervous. I will bathe her bum tomorrow. Would coating it with vaseline help?

    Need info on American buff geese

    I have a question. We recently got a Buff gander and goose who were not mated but are getting along great. This is our first experience with geese and we love them.
