    Baby chicks/sugar in water

    Thank-you so much for the advice. I will see how they are doing when i get them, and if they seem like they could use the sugar water i will follow your advice, and have everything ready just in case. 2tbsp of sugar seems like an awful lot! Thanks again!

    Hi, my name is Heide

    Hello, my name is Heide. My husband and i have had chickens several times before, in our 29 years together. But when we moved in 2008, we didnt want to subject our flock to a 4 hr trip, so we gave them to a good home, that keeps us up to date on how they are doing. Yesterday i decided it was...
