Last night all but one made it in the coop with out my help.... YAY!!!!!!! No chicken chasing last night .... Poor babies kept calling for the one who couldnt figure it out... We waited and waited... But he just couldnt figure it out.. Poor thing... But he didnt run from he at all .. i think he...
My babies are 5 weeks old. It's only going to get down to 63 tonight. I don't think I will leave the heat lamp on for them tonight. Should I just put a regular light bulb in the coop for them and leave it on all night so they won't be in the dark, or just let them be in the dark?
Does anyone know what the chicks will look like if the following hens eggs are fertilized by a Columbian Wyandotte rooster.......
cuckoo marans egg
Speckled Sussex egg
Barnevelder egg
Golden laced wyandotte egg .
If u haven't guessed yet I have a Columbian Wyandotte rooster...
Out of my nine mixed flock these two are the sweetest and will gladly get on my hand to get out of the brooder.... Ameraucana and Cuckoo Marans... All the others seem so skittish.
Oh my gosh who new a box of dirt in my brooder of 1 week olds pullets would cause so much intertainment. It's spa day :D .... I have one that will usually check things out first and she was really enjoying the whole box to her self... And then the others noticed... Well the box won't hold them...
