He also won't stay out of the water bowl now that he has found it

This baby hatched yesterday about 4:30pm. I moved Waddles (his name) out to the brooder this evening at about 6pm (fully dry but had to wip his eyes since egg stuff crusted them shut). Brooder temp at floor is 90. I'm concerned because he just seems so weak and fragile. Is that normal. He...

Can I get your build plans? I would love to do something like this for mine

When should I get nervous and more concerned?

They are restricted to specific areas - the garage lights are on during the day and off at night but nature lighting is restricted with the garage door not always being open. They also have a heat light 24/7 since Temps are still in the 30s to 40s

I have over 15 black chicks. I did put one the bands

I purchased 3 black jersey giant hens, 3 Rhode Island red hens, amd 15 mystery birds. I'm new to both breeds I ordered and most other breeds. I was hoping to only get three black chicks so I could tell them apart - but I have lots of black ones. Can someone help me tell the breeds? If you could...

My chicks are 47 days old and while I was away my parents gave them treats. They haven't had access to grit yet - winter in MN so they are indoors tell spring. I have grit coming but no stores near by had any in stock. Will they be okay until I get some Tuesday when our order is in?
