    Where is a swap in Altoona? I would love to go. Will there be one next month? I tried googling and can’t find anything about them.

    Sunbeam Xpress Heat is what I got. It has a button that will make it stay on. They have them at Walmart. It’s only 12” X 15”, so its not for very many chicks.

    I have my new chicks in the living room next to a window. They are loving the sunlight coming in. I’m using the Heating Pad instead of a heat lamp and they really enjoy that. Can’t wait to get more

    Thank you!! They look so comfy under there. Do you have the hearing pad under or on top of the wire? And if it’s under how do you secure it. I did find the thread on here about it. Lots of great ideas, need to head to Walmart

    Also, has anyone ever used a heating pad instead of a heat lamp for the brooder? I’d love to not use the heat lamp, with a coal stove our house is warm anyway and the chicks won’t need much warmth. But I’m nervous that the heating pad is also dangerous? What are everyone thoughts?

    Raising Meat Rabbits

    We had our first litter of rabbits about 5 weeks ago. That litter didn't open their eyes until they were more than 3 weeks old. We have a litter right now that's 2 weeks old, their eyes have been open for a couple days. Same breed of rabbit. Not sure what the difference is and why this new...

    The khaki-Campbell duck Thread !!!!!!!!

    I am so happy. We've had the 4, 8 week old ducks in the run with the chickens, but we separated them with a chain link fence for 1 week so everyone could get used to each other. We let the ducks out Saturday morning with the chickens. No problems so far. But the awesome part is the ducks...

    Lots of pictures today.. Here is a picture of our duck house. We made the nice door in the front but they hate the ramp so they just go in and out the back door. They do go in at night, thank goodness!! I was worried they wouldn't. We have had the chain link fence separating them from...

    The khaki-Campbell duck Thread !!!!!!!!

    I'm glad it's not just us. We got ours when they were 5 weeks old, they are now 8 weeks old and I thought it was because we didn't have them as babies. Hopefully it gets better after they start laying maybe they will calm down.

    Raising Meat Rabbits

    You all were right. I just checked on them this afternoon and a couple of them are opening their eyes. Not much but they are doing it. I just need to have patience. This is my first time with rabbits and I'm worried I'm doing something wrong I guess.

    Raising Meat Rabbits

    I have 14 day old Californian bunnies, this is my first litter. None of them have their eyes open yet. I'm getting different reports on the internet about when they should open. I thought it was 10-12 days but some people say 2-3 weeks. When have your kits opened their eyes? I think I'm...

    OMG!! I wish you hadn't shared her facebook page and that I hadn't gone to it. Her birds are beautiful!!! I've added rabbits, ducks and turkeys already this year (plus 11 chicks but they don't count yet). Now I'm going to have to add some of those brahmas and legbars to my list. LOL
