    Brooding In Plasitc Sterilite Tubs

    Note buy the thicker clear container's and try not to over heat the container. The thin ones will probably give off toxins if heated up.

    Brooding In Plasitc Sterilite Tubs

    I would say it's the amount of time spent in the cold. 4 days is too long. I use the same method with a propane heater on one side and water bottles and or bags if needed. Since Dec, We lost about 40 Chicks in 5 orders due to it being too cold and sitting in a post office. 3 days was the...

    Agreed. Northern AZ will be most likely zero with wind. Perches get covered for older Birds and more but a single silkie would be in big trouble. We have a Silkie Hen & Rooster in a Travel Trailer and even they will be getting special treatment for the next 3 days out here. Like oven on low to...
