I'm very sad to hear that you no longer have the chicks! That really stinks. I hope the job is going well.You've got the feeding regime well noted now and a base mark for getting a new batch in the spring, even for when breeding and hatching yourself
Unfortunately I've had to move house wit work and now living in the city, so had to get rid of the whole lot. No issue though as had people drive for a couple hours and another from the other end of the island!
Will still be following!
I separated the keepers over the weekend, and I'll be moving them into the main coop this weekend. 2 WR cockerels, 3 pullets, 1 DC cockerel and 1 pullet, and 1 Delaware pullet. When they move into the main coop, I'll switch all of their food over to 20% flock maintenance. They're all going through a bit of a molt right now, so the food might help with their feathers, we'll see. I'm going to build a large 55 gallon trashcan feeder with pvc, we'll see how it turns out. I also moved my 2 rabbits into the large coop last weekend, they are getting along spendidly and I hope that lasts after the next merger. I'll try to get some pics this weekend, in between hunting and fixing some coop roofing...
