She had pushed one of the 3 that I pushed under her after she moved off of the original nest back into the original nest but wasnt sitting on it. Tthen when i went out to check on her she had gone outside the coop.for a minute. Left her 4 chicks in the coop. I grabbed the one she pushed into the...

I got.to do one so far see previous post.

@EggSighted4Life Hmm. Maybe there is some hope? She just moved back o into her original nest. Took 2 of the 3 eggs with her. I watched her tuck them under. One I was able to candle first. It had a air sac on the wide end and I saw and felt some movement but haven't seen or heard anything from it...

OK 😆 thanks. I appreciate that. She's moved off again and is showing her brood how to get water and food. They are eating a drinking. One egg she moved back into the original nest 2 other she left where she had moved to. Being that they have no signs of hatching I will assume they are duds. I...

I don't really have any Interest in hatching eggs in an incubator. Or taking care of chick's. I've done it but now that I have broodies I'd rather let them handle it. If they don't hatch naturally I'd rather let nature take its course. Thanks for your suggestion though.i do appreciate you taking...

I put them all under her at the same time. So you are saying they are likely duds? Just want to be clear. I pushed them under her. But if she moves again I'll take them out. Looks like she'll be taking the family out of the broader for a stroll soon. As she moved right by the door.

No i do not.

I'll.add maybe too.many eggs? This is the biggest I've given a broody. She's welsummer. This is her first time. She's only about 7 months old. The first 2 clutches were 5 and 4 eggs. Also to first time moms

Today is day 21. Hatch started on day 19 I saw 2 chick's. Day 20 I saw 4. Today she has moved off her nest with the 4 and left 3 eggs. At day 8 I had candlesd them and they all looked the same development wise. I didn't touch them after. I put the remaining eggs to my ear and hear nothing. They...

Thanks!

Oh yes. I will have to keep you in mind. I already gave her some eggs she's been sitting on almost a week. But I donhave 2 broodies. So when the other one pops off can I DM you? Are they pure CLB?

Yeah I figured that out after I posted :hit I posted an ISO thread so hopefully I will get some bites. I could go the ebay route but id rather try here first.

I'm in South Carolina. 1 of my broodies went into the nest yesterday.

Do you ship?

Currently for 18 chickens i have 2 1 gallon bell waterers. I take them in at night and wash them and fill in the morning. They sit on cement blocks. Except if i have chicks i put one on the ground. Its always worked fine and i like the idea of giving them fresh water every day. However now.i...

My diy feeder is 6 pvc elbows in a tote. It holds a 50llb bag. I have 2 2gallon waterers but i bring them in at night and wash them and fill in morning. I do put in zyfend A a couple times a year. After molt usually and summer time. May not be helpful but it doesnt hurt.

Idk if its right or not but the old lady at the feed store told me to use kitten kibble. I just use it as a top dress over their feed so not a ton. They get a grower crumble with oyster shell on the side. Might be good to see what others here say. Ive never had any issues in 5 years. But ya...
