Our first chicks have learned to spread their wings. When I went downstairs to check on them this morning in the brooders, I found one of our cochin bantams roosting on the edge of the tub, lol. I decided it was past time to make a screen for the top of each tub. Looking back now, I should have built the lids to begin with. Live and learn. This new chick mama learned her lesson.
