    Do my little chicks need a perch to stand on?

    I would really appreciate pictures also. I just stuck a mirror in my brooder box and a couple small wood blocks for something to jump on. Not sure about a perch though. I wonder how they would like a toilet paper roll?

    I have frozen corn from last years garden. If I thaw it out maybe they can eat that since I am not going to. This thread had lots of good ideas. I am going to try a mirror for my chicks too.

    Pastey butt or something? Help?!

    Okay I just did this with my RIR and she hated it. I tired to dry her as much as I could but she got pretty wet struggling to get out of my hold. I waited and watched her under the heat lamp and it took about 5 min. Hope it wasn't too cold for her. The poo came of with a toothbrush. I didn't...

    Pastey Butt!!!

    My Rhode Island Red got it last night and through out today. Wasn't sure what to do cause I just got her yesterday and its my first run at chickens. I will put towels down and try and clean her with a q tip. Can she die from this? What did you mean by "out of the woods"?
