Hi! New to the rabbit forum, but not new to BYC.
I have two of these in my hutch. But I'm having the hardest time securing them to the walls. Any tips? https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/dumor-rabbit-sifter-feeder-large-hlf250?cm_vc=-10005
I wish I could develop a love for tea. Most of my family loves it. It just tastes so bitter to me. I finally like coffee after turning 30. But it still has to have cream and sugar before I can enjoy it.
My chickens free range, but seem to like being in the sun during the warmest part of the day. They have ample access to grass, clover, and my goat barns. Not sure why they like the heat!! :rolleyes: And I live in Louisiana!

It has only pecked the first hole and DS finished taking the shell off. He didn't know better. All this happened just this morning. Momma already has two other chicks that hatched Tuesday. Not sure if that's why she rejected it or not.
Thank you for your help!!
My DS helped a chick hatch too soon. It's beak was visible, but it was still in the shell. When given to momma, she pecked it a bit, rolled it over, and walked away. I do not own an incubator. Is there any way I can save the chick? TIA
