    So many questions.....

    So I'm a first timer and I really wish I would have done more homework before the babies arrived but I guess you could always say that. I've got two questions to start. I've got 20 2 week old white longhorns. I've been brooding them in my small outdoor coop. 19 of them are doing fantastic. I...
