    Issues with AccuHatch Pro Cabinet

    I purchased the AccuHatch Pro Cabinet incubator from incubator warehouse and it does not seem to be keeping temp or humidity as displayed. I have multiple hygrometers in different spots in the cabinet, and they are all different from what is displayed on the cabinet. Has anyone used this cabinet...

    Advice on moving 12 wk chicks to roost with big girls

    All of this was my fear and totally agree on the rating for the number of birds. Unless it is silkies, that 10 is laughable. My own 4 OGs can barely fit on that bar together!

    Advice on moving 12 wk chicks to roost with big girls

    Hi my lovely BYC gurus.. question for the crowd. I have been integrating new chicks into my OG flock (Bigs are 26 weeks, Littles are now 12 weeks). At this point, they are pretty much co-existing. I wouldn't necessarily call them integrating so much as tolerating each other lol. But, I will take...

    International Black Copper Marans Thread - Breeding to the SOP

    I spoke to a few breeders about this and they said they don't know where that is coming from. They are no different than any other vent. Maybe it is outdated info and they just kept it up on the site? I'm not sure. I did call and they said they do not have any more information on this. I have...

    International Black Copper Marans Thread - Breeding to the SOP

    That’s correct. I wanted the new owners to have a chance to bond with their littles as soon as possible so I thought a week would be fair.

    International Black Copper Marans Thread - Breeding to the SOP

    Thank you! I will be vent-sexing and was very confused by Cackle's disclaimer. Maybe they're just really shy :lau

    Meyer Ameraucanas?

    Here is my experience and I will start with the negative first: I recently made my first order with Meyer and it had some issues, to say the least. I ordered a Lavender Ameraucana pullet. She is very sweet and lovely, but she has the shredder gene AND she is practically bantam-sized. I also...

    International Black Copper Marans Thread - Breeding to the SOP

    Good morning beautiful chicken tenders! Question.. I am getting ready to hatch HB Marans' FBCMs and I would like to vent sex them. I have heard (mainly just from Cackle's website) that they can be difficult to sex, but I can't find why. Does anyone have any tips or tricks to this for BCMs? I...

    Young, healthy hen sits in nest box but doesn't lay

    First of all.. wakko and yakko.. I am deceased LOL. Second, here are some things to do to rule out any issues: 1. Check the nesting box for mites or any other unsavory things that may be turning her off of laying 2. If they free range, look for her eggs somewhere else on the property 3. Check...

    Should I remove the curtains?

    Hi! Her wattles and comb are very red. Here is a pic of my Dottie. They started turning red and getting bigger about 2-3 weeks ago and she started squatting about 2 weeks ago. I knew she was ready bc she was going in and out of the nest boxes for the last couple of days.

    Please help! Worried about first time layer - input needed!

    They’re on grower as I have two sets of chicks that are integrating soon so that’s why they’re still on them. :) I have oyster shells and limestone grit in with the big girls to supplement. Regarding heat, my layer gets very bothered in anything over 85. Like dramatic as all get out. Panting...
