Types of Chickens and Their Characteristics

Egyptian Chicken: Fayoumi

Description: The Egyptian Fayoumi chicken is a small, active, and independent breed known for its excellent foraging abilities and disease resistance. These chickens have a distinctive appearance with silver-white or gold-penciled feathers and a beetle-green sheen. They are hardy birds well-suited to hot climates but sensitive to cold due to their large combs and light plumage.

General Steps for Hatching Eggs

Incubator Preparation

  • Clean the incubator thoroughly before use.
  • Set the incubator to the correct temperature and humidity levels (specifics for each type below).
  • Allow the incubator to run for 24 hours before placing the eggs to ensure stability.

Raising Chickens

Brooder Setup

  • Set up a brooder with a heat lamp to maintain the temperature at 95°F (35°C) for the first week.
  • Reduce the temperature by 5°F each week until fully feathered (about 6 weeks old).
