Where did you get your CX's? I'M ordering from Macmurray. A little worried as they have VERY mixed reviews. Ive loved dealing with Ideal Poultry, they don't have the breeds im interested in

Remove the heat lamp immediately!! These birds are high temped and do not need the same kind of temps that laying chicks do. My two week olds go out on pasture without a heat lamp at 40 degree nights. They are gasping for air because they are overheating mostly likely!Hi am new to meat birds and have been having a couple problems. Everything was going great and the last two days (birds are 2 weeks old) I have lost 4 birds. I have read a lot and feel I am doing everything right just not sure what is happening. I have the birds in a brooder with softwood shavings. I have checked and double checked te best under my lamp and its 90-95 degrees depending on outside temperature. Change their water once sometimes twice daily. Some of the birds seem to be almos gasping for air at times but there is plenty of ventilation in my barn. They also seem to stretch their legs almost every time they get up to get water or feed.
Awww! I love baby chicks!! I'm gearing up for a new batch pretty quick here myself. We are moving my 13 week olds out of the grow out area to the pasture training area this weekend! I'm excited because that means babies after it's all mucked out. Yay!
