    We bought 6 red pullets from TSC Sadly one passed away but the others are doing fine. What is your experience with Buying from TSC When you bought just Pullets did you get just pullets?

    New chicks How long do I keep them in the brooder.

    Quote: I would Put Pine shavings in the bottom for the chicks to Scratch in and keep their balance the bathtub might be sorta slippery as well as keep the chicks warm
