    BCM? and roo? Also grey marans mix....also a roo?

    Dad was pure BCM running with pure BCM and Easter Egger gals. Wondering if the black one would be considered pure BCM as I'm seeing white and if both are definitely roos. Hatched April 1st.

    Turning Storage building into Coop--surrounding fence/net suggestions?

    Hello! I'm turning a nice 10x12 storage building into a coop. I'm putting a 6' high fence for the run that will start at the edges of the coop and shoot out from the building on each side....if that makes sense.

    Air bubble seems to be in the wrong place--can you help?

    Hello! I candled my eggs last night (8th day) and it looks like the majority of these eggs have their air pocket/bubble beneath the developing embryo.

    Do you take all eggs out of the incubator and candle or a few at a time?

    I haven't hatched eggs in probably 15 years. When it comes time to candle, I can't remember if I took the lid off the incubator and then did each egg, or tried not to take the lid off and just pull them one at a time? What's the best process? Thank you!
