    First night outside - did great! :)

    I always stress over putting the chicks out the first time. Hubby is always "urging" me to get them out of the house, but it is hard letting them go. Then, after the first night of worrying, I take a deep breathe and think, why in the world didn't I just put them out? There have never been any...

    Seperating the chicks

    I have kept ducklings, poults, goslings and chicks together before. Ducklings tend to be a little hyperactive, and if you have the means to separate them, your chicks will probably thank you.

    Still no luck at TSC...

    You could always ask where they order chicks from, and if they would let you order what you want, to come in with the next shipment. I have done this, and it saves shipping cost and sometimes because of the bulk quantities TSC gets, your chicks may be cheaper.

    Question About Grit

    I don't give mine grit until they start treats. Normally you don't need grit with starter. Sometimes it even says on the starter bag that you don't need additional grit.

    Dark x partridge brahma questions

    Hello all, I was wondering... since dark is silver, and partridge is gold, Could you let them interbreed and still get silvers and golds. Or is there other weird genetics going on?

    2 Male Miniature Schnauzer Puppies - Michigan

The one on the left we have been calling Deuce. He is more laid back than his brother who we have been...

    I get $3 a dozen. That is the same price as the farm market (except for the Amish stalls. They sell them for $2.5).

    Do I need to worry about the pond?

    Chickens don't know how to swim. I learned the hard way. I lost several in the duck's kiddie pool. But that was above ground. They fell in when they tried to sit on the lip to get a drink. You shouldn't have any problems if your pond and pool are flush/ low to the ground.
