My black hen

Salam,

Today,I will be featuring my black hen.

She had a very solid body with heavy boned structure.She's at 10 months old and already laying eggs.

I merely can found her today,maybe she started to incubate her eggs somewhere in the bushes.Hopefully to see her this week to monitor her egg condition.

This strain known to be brainless and hard punching gamefowl.It can hatch her own egg and a good protective mother.It only came on small pea comb and dark legged,both red and wine red in color with some in lemon hackle and big eyes too.The feathers quite different from others,came on glossy oily looking feathering.

more to come...

Breeding season

Salam,

I have started breeding for this season since early October.I obtained 5 chicks out of the mating.This is my Kelso Sweater crosses.The hen laid 7 eggs and 5 were hatched.It a good start for the breeding season.


Here they are....

The other 2 smaller chicks were an experimental hatching on a new pullet.She lay only 3 eggs and 2 of them were hatched.They were grey crosses.

I will be using 5 hens and 2 pullets for November till early January breeding session.For the afterward,I will be using a sweater lemon and a grey kelso pullet,since the other two were not ready yet until January.

I will be focusing on grey hatch crosses since I like the way they move and hopefully I can meet my target of a 40 stags for this breeding season.

Until next writing.

Ranging site

السلام عليكم


This is where I range my chicken until harvesting.Its a rubber tree farm and next to it,is a paddy field and a pepper trees.My chicken will eat mostly on grass and insects and supplemented by poultry feed.

I maintain the farm to be dry at all time by ensuring no water trapment.The farm is at higher ground (elevated site),and the drain is not needed.There is no puddle in the farm area thus will slimming the chances of disease outbreak.


Till next post..

My Homemade Egg Incubator

I hatched all my gamefowl egg using my homemade incubator
(polystyrene box).
All of the component such as thermostat,thermometer,dimmer switch,
wire for connection and 40 watt bulb/socket obtained from local electrical store.
I made it as simple and cheap as it can be because this incubator
model is only for my educational purposes only.

Inside the incubator

I use egg tray to hold my eggs in place so that I would stay still.
I use two different thermometer for redundancy.

The thermostat and dimmer switch

I control my incubator approximately at 39C.As you can see,I did not monitor
the humidity because here in my place,the humidity is high,meaning mothly
relative humidity falls between 70-90 %.

For the hatching mode,I just sprikle mist of water to help soften the egg to help hatching.

The hatching percentage for my incubator is around 60% where 4 out of  7 eggs
hatched (first batch),8 out of 15 eggs hatched,and 18 out of 25 eggs hatched.

Until next post.

Greeting

Hello.

This is the first post I have made to my new blog.Well,everything must start from somewhere I guess.

I will make this blog as an archive for my gamefowl breeding program.This include all the gamefowl care,feeding,medication,incubating and all the stuff related on chicken rearing.It may useful and enjoyment for people that thinking to start or planning of chicken rearing.

For info,I am new in gamefowl rearing which I decided to start 2 years ago.

So,if you have something to share,just leave comments.

Best regards
