    How many horizontal nipples each and how big should bottles be for 25 standard chicks?

    Thanks for answering my post, cool brooder! I have raised ducks and chicks over the years in cardboard boxes, and wet shavings have always been annoying. I don't have much experience with these nipples for chicks only tried the vertical ones last summer on my old hens. I like the bungee idea and...

    How many horizontal nipples each and how big should bottles be for 25 standard chicks?

    Hi folks! I'm creating a brooder out of a refrigerator box(3.5W x 7L x 2.5H). Wondering how many nipples I should install in each bottle, and how many bottles I should provide for 25 chicks? These bottles I am using hold 1.5 quarts of water each above the level of the nipples.

    Thank you folks for responding, after seeing the giant light brown eggs she has layed since we got her Saturday, I think you guys nailed it! I'd never seen a black sex link with that much gold around the neck and body.

    Can chickens stand the cold weather?

    "Boiseans are welcoming in the new year with goosebumps from three solid weeks of frigid temperatures. All but two days in January have been below normal — and not just a little. We're talking average daily temperatures that have been 10 to 24 degrees below normal. In fact, the city is on track...

    Can chickens stand the cold weather?

    Ok I finally caved tonight. Went out this morning and two of my production reds with the biggest combs were showing noticeable signs of mild frost bite(white cold tips on combs and front edges of wattles). The weather has been brutal(9-16 F) for weeks, unusual for Boise, but all was well until...
