I have four week old chicks. Last week we had friends in town for the 4th and one brought his Jack Russell Terrier, and I'm sure you know where this story is going,... The dog took 3 of our 10 in a matter of seconds. They were in the basement in their brooder and she snuck through the door, down the stairs, and well you get the point! I was sick. This my first time raising birds and i had grown attached to the cute lil things! Our local farm and ranch store has a shipment coming next week. Should i add to my flock now-thinking it will be easier to assimilate them together being only 1 month apart. Or should I wait and see which birds we would like to add to our flock? We currently have leg horns, cochins, and buff orps. And then there's always the chance we may have a few roo's in the mix,....
Oh the questions!
