A lot of people want to hatch and raise their own chicks.

I know nothing about this so please add your own information, experiences and advice to this topic.  Moderators may add any useful links that they find as things go along.

TMG has sugested some areas that could be covered

"all about incubators" (people could post why their incy is good or rubbish)

"hatching with a broody or incy" (this could be do's and don't of setting eggs, temperature and humidity and just about anything)

"when things go wrong"  (we've all done it, help them out or not? time from pipping to hatch ect) and

"caring for your chicks" ....(heat, feeding, the great outdoors etc.)

Please make any posts consise and useful.  No acres of words please, just make it easy to read.
