Hi I'm also new at this whole hatching thing! I have a hen getting ready to hatch eggs -"and this is my first ever hatch because I'm only 14! But do I need to put small size chicken wire around their chain linked fence run? Or do I bring the mom and eggs in a brooder box?
I'm new at this. Should I put small size chicken wire around the run which is chain link fence? Or should I just move the mom and the chicks into a brooder box? Or separate the chicks and the mom?
Ok,i've had plenty of chickens.I have a flock of 22 and i've raised half from either day old chicks or pullets.I know how hard it is when 1 chick cannot finish it's life,well that's why i'm making a guide for "Caring for Chicks"and if needed i'll be glad to make an all how to care for...
