Dutch552: You know, when I was a kid my Mom never put marbles in the water or got special feed, she fed new chicks cornmeal LOL. I do believe that advancements can be a good thing, but I also think people have a tendency to over-think things... not going to worry about the marbles
I have checked like a bazillion times today LOL. I reaaaly want them to come tomorrow so we can do our shopping Saturday morning because the fireworks place is not open on Sunday! Which means if the chicks do not come until Saturday morning, we are going to be going down to the valley shopping Saturday afternoon in the heat ugh.
On a positive note, my temporary brooder is taped together LOL. I totally did it different than I was planning, made it alot bigger! I still have to put in everything (pine shavings, paper towels, feed and water and the EcoGlow) and put wire on the top to keep the cat out. Hopefully this will work until I can get a stove or fridge box the end of next week and by the time they have outgrown that they are headed out the door into an outside brooder we are setting up in the barn (made from an old tent trailer).
I will get pics as soon as I get all the stuff in and it is ready for the new fluff bottoms!
