So, my sister went to college and left her dog with me, but he's got a problem with chasing chickens. I've been working with him and he seems to be doing better. Just one thing, THEY WILL NOT LEAVE HIS FOOD ALONE. You'd think after being chased every time they go after it they would stop, but...

I would get pics of their combs if they would let me get close enough. Chick #1 is getting pretty red on his face/comb/waddles. Chick #2 is really pale, and chick #3 is right in between the two. I think most of them as single combs as only one of the parents was an EE (the rooster). There are...

They are about 6 weeks old.

I've got a couple chicks that I'm trying to figure out the genders of. They were hatched under one of my hens, the parents are an EE rooster and either a game hen or a blue laced red wyandotte hen. I've got some guesses, but was hoping for a second opinion. (Sorry the pictures aren't better...

Well, looks like I'm not getting Amy Easter chicks this year. My incubator got unplugged and I have no idea how long it's been that way

Hey, I'm using a brinsea octagon and this is my first time using it. How can I lower the temperature for lockdown

Oh, and I just realized I never mention the breeds, so.... They are mixed breed. My rooster is kind of a wheaten colored Easter Egger, while I think that the eggs I set were from my Blue Laced Red Wyandotte, Black Star, Game Hen, White Leghorn, then I'm not quite sure about the rest

So many posts! I have no idea how I'm going to keep up... Anyways, I candled my eggs for the first time today. Five out of the nine are fertile, with one darker one that is uncertain. I was actually kind of surprised that even that many were fertile, as I had only had my rooster for about a...

hmmm, guess I'll have to get my mom to enter for me too.

I guess I'm join, but I'm not sure how my hatch rate will be. I set 9 eggs earlier today.

Using the exact link that David1998 posted (http://www.wayfair.com/Mat-Mesh-Hardware-Cloth-308B-BFJ1001.html?RefID=IR57486), it is saying that a 36" x 100' roll is $22. That seems like a ton less than anywhere else I've seen so I don't know if it's just a different kind of hardware cloth or...

Hey, I was looking at the prices on the hardware cloth at Wayfair and they are significantly cheaper than I was able to find anywhere else. I was wondering how well yours worked? How durable is it? It has the weight listed on the site as 3lbs for every size. Is this just a misprint or is it just...
