    Not everyone, no. Just the people that have replied to this thread. Keeping chickens in the winter is fairly easy depending on the breed. Heated coops arent really recommended, because if there is a power outage, they lose the heat that theyre accustomed to but it runs on solar and dont have to...

    First time using a brooder! - Advice needed

    How'd the brooder work out?? In the future, you could put a bit of hardware cloth to block off the bulb but also still provide heat. Plus, it will serve as a heat sync conserving more of the heat.

    Pasty Butt took one of my chicks this morning

    Appps, they are on flake pine shavings. I had paper towels down, but it got gross really quick in there, so I had to change it out at least once a day and it was stressing them out quite a bit. So I switched to pine shavings. I have a red brooder lamp, so only light they get is from garage windows.

    South Carolina Chickadee!

    Welcome! I just got my chicks last week! I think now is a great time to get them as there is a waiting period to get eggs and I might as well do it when the adult ones aren't laying as many due to there not being much sunlight in winter.. My run isn't complete, but they'll be in the brooder for...

    Pasty Butt took one of my chicks this morning

    I'm feeding them a medicated chick starter.. This only my second time raising chicks, but had no problems the first time. Temp under lamp is 95 and other side of brooder is about 75-80. I put olive oil under her vent and I also put ACV in their waterer. Three had it, but on the second cleaning...

    Pasty Butt took one of my chicks this morning

    Hi, all. I noticed that a couple of my week old chicks have pasty butt. I cleaned them manually with a wet paper towel and then dried it off, but it kept accumulating on the same chicks. I noticed this morning one of the pasty butt chicks somewhat lethargic, so I decided I would do the running...
