    Are these eggs developing?

    I am on day 14 of my first incubator hatch, and I am almost sure these eggs aren't developing, but they keep getting darker and the dark areas are growing (rotting?) but they don't smell, and look almost cloudy inside...? So, I would really appreciate some input! :) Here are a few pictures of...

    Stuff to Put Inside Nesting Boxes? They Keep Pushing the Bedding Out :(

    Hi! We've been having a rather annoying issue with our girls. I keep putting wood shavings inside the coop and nesting boxes, and they keep moving the wood shavings out of the nesting boxes so they are bare. Is there something else I should be using in the nesting boxes? At this point I'm not...

    ISO: BANTAMS! Bantam Rainbow Eggers (Blue, Green, Pink)!

    Hi, All! I did find Bantam Easter Egger chicks online, but they don't do as well with shipping as regular sized chicks, apparently, because I keep losing the ones I got day by day despite giving them more heat than is required and despite they are eating and drinking fine (included in their...

    Hello everyone! A while ago I found 2 broody seramas sat on 3 eggs, candled all of them and they all seemed to be fertile. I don't know how long they were sat on them, but 1 has hatched just yesterday and seems to be healthy. The other 2 haven't shown any signs of external or internal pipping. I...

    Will this end in egg eating

    Hi everyone, Thanks for reading my thread. I have a 5 year old hen, a maran cross. For the first 4 years she laid 4 or 5 a week, a good and happy hen. Last year her eggs, suddenly, changed from 75g to 110g with dreadfully thin shells. I separated her and gave her antibiotics, monitored her food...

    Too many eggs! Suggestions?

    We inherited a dozen chickens and a rooster when we bought our house18 month ago. We were excited at first to have the eggs but it’s getting out of hand. They’re great layers and we typically get 8-10 eggs every day. We’re a family of four but my daughter is sick of eggs and refuses to eat them...

    6 month old Pullet stopped laying

    Hello all! I know questions like this are pretty common but I still wanted to ask in my own way. I have 6 pullets. 2 EEs I bought in March, other 4 (OE and 3 Marans) were bought in late May. They were separate until late September when I managed to integrate them successfully. Up until that...

    Eggs and the govt. shutdown

    I know I said the word government in the title (well abbreviated it anyway) but this is not at all meant to be a political thread. I don't care how we got here or whose fault it is, it doesn't matter. That out of the way, as some of you probably have seen there is a very good chance that SNAP...

    New to chickens

    We got eight Cream Legbars in Feb 2025 at 3-days old. We love them, and as I am retired they are a big part of my sanity. I researched a lot and then built a decent coop and run, and the ladies seem happy in there. Six boxes for eight birds and I use one for in-coop food and water. We're rural...

    Aracaunas

    I am looking for some legitimate Aracauna breeders. I'm for sure looking for a roo. I have an opportunity to buy a double tufted, rumpless female. One question I have is if I breed a double tufted to either a single tufted or clean face what are the chances I will get double tufted? Or...

    Hello from Central Florida

    About 25 years ago I had about 10 chickens that would free range and coop at night. We had a few disappear in the night and we gave the rest to a neighbor. Since then, I have been on the retail side of chickens and farm animals and recommending everyone check out BYC for all of their chicken...

    Multiple pigeon nests laying three eggs- what's going on??

    Heya all! Basically, recently, around three different pairs of my pigeons are laying three eggs. At first I though it was a bird nest stealing or laying an extra egg in already made nests, but from the single time I've let all three hatch- (I usually remove every egg that's laid regardless but...

    Hen with cancer started laying again ??

    Hi all, My 5 y/o Buff Cochin was 'diagnosed' with carcinomatosis as some might already know. I posted a lot about this 2-3 years ago when she first got the diagnoses, thinking she was going to pass. The vet gave her a suprelorin implant and an expected few months to live. Its been a handful of...

    Hatching Rings to hold an air cell upright during incubation

    I have designed a little gadget (hatching rings) to hold an egg in an upright position during lockdown phase of incubation. This comes in handy when you are hatching small or hard to hatch eggs. Especially if you incubated in the upright position for the first phase. I created these while...
