    Sight Sexing Barred Plymouth Rock Chicks at Hatch

    Hoping that this is a pullet (darker than examples of cockerels shown) but the pink wattle at this early age is scaring me. Anyone have a guess? Edit: crap that picture doesn't look dark at all. 7 weeks old.

    Anything I Should Do About This?

    Buried under those concrete blocks are....more concrete blocks! I went down 6" to be safe. Still not as good as an apron. I have tons of foxes too. :(

    Temporary Change of Waterers Question

    PS: I put a Sharpee line at the water level so I can see if it goes down as they drink but it's warm and water could also just evaporate I'd assume. Thanks again.

    Will chicks use poultry nipples?

    My chicks used poultry nipples from the day after they hatched and haven't used any other waterer. It took them a few minutes to figure it out but not much longer than that. Good luck!

    Grit question.

    I have a similar question - I've been using contractor sand as chick grit and am wondering when to go to actual poultry grit (or if I'll need to).
