Todays Entry:
Well I woke up this morning and the gold laced wyandotte had poop stuck to her backside.. so i got a warm washcloth and set it up next to it for awhile while i got out some olive oil... cleaned it off and put olive oil around her butt... also put a little on all the chicks vent areas... then got some whole oats and grinded them up..and put it on top of their feed and put the rest in a zip lock baggie... then went outside grabbed a shovel and pulled up a small area of grass and dirt and set it inside the brooder.. and mixed up a electrolight & probiotic and mixed with their water..

Todays Entry: well i picked up 3 more chicks and added them... they all seem to be getting along great only problem is... gheez they cant keep their darn water clean!!! and they wanna sleep on top of the feeder? even tho ive added lincon logs and everything they still perfer the feeder lol they cant poop where they eat! little boogers! im cleaning their brooder every few hours!

PS: Update* I figured how to keep their water a bit cleaner by using a paper plate.. putting 2 paper towel sheets on top of it.. then putting the water thing on that and pushing it back so they have a wiping ground.. its helped keep it cleaner now...

Todays Entry: Well I know now that i have 8 im going to NEED to convert my back yard unfnished shed into a chicken coop... egh... an unexpected expense for sure.. darn my husband for getting 3 more.. but they are all doing well all eating.. they especially love oats.. ( i grind them up in a blender and put some in my hand and let them come eat)
