    Nice! I'm in south Florida so the summer heat can be tougher than winter, except for the shorter daylight

    Australorp chicks from Mt Healthy

    Bear with me if I screw up this post / pics / vids! 🙏🏼 Thought I'd post an update about my Australorps from Mt Healthy. They are 21 weeks now and surprisingly started laying a few days ago, despite brutal humidity and a heat index of 105 degrees plus for 22 straight days now. So far, the...

    Cackle Hatchery or Mt Healthy ?

    I just got black australorps from Mt Healthy, the chicks are 3 wks "old" now, healthy and happy floofers. Really sweet bunch of chicks, def more pricey than other places but they had what I wanted, when I wanted so I'm not griping about a few bucks more! The chicks were bright eyed and excited...

    Thank you! Yes, gardening is a whole new experience when there's nothing but sand. Under the big oak tree canopies are pretty much the only places there are that have a semblance of soil 😅 Our biggest issues stem from walled in developments aka gulags that are encroaching, the micro climates...

    Want to move them outside!!!

    TreasureCoast here and while I'm no expert, I believe I raise healthier chicks by moving them out of the house as early as temps allow. My new chicks are not quite 3 weeks yet, they're getting feisty and flybombing around the brooder. The brooder space is around 80 degrees with a brooder plate...

    Are my chicks too young to be outside?

    I'm in S Florida too, I have been able to let my chicks outside around 2-3 weeks old, at least during day time (they do have a brooder plate in their brooder). Nothing like spreading their wings and giving life a test ride! They've already been dust bathing in local substrate since 1wk old...

    Adding outside dirt to brooder?

    As long as they're healthy and bright eyed, I give my new chicks a tupperware dust bath of sand, fine pine mulch, coco coir, wood ash and DE (at about a week old) in their brooder and just watch closely for signs of diarrhea etc. They love it! Next step in "hardening" and introducing them to...

    Thank you! We have 3 adopted Danes. The other two would rather share chicken recipe ideas than protect them 🙈🙉🙊
