Our water is very hard and contains flouride. Is there any risk to day old chicks from drinking treated water? My family and I drink it without concern, but not sure if they are sensitive to it. I haven't came across anything regarding water with flouride, etc. Any info appreciated, THANKS! :)
We are new to raising chickens and just bought our first chicks. 9 hens, Rhode Island Reds, Buff Orpingtons and Black Sex Links. We built a nice secure brooder for now and are working on their permanent coop. :) Chicks appear healthy and happy. Our main concern is predators, which are abundant...
