    I just got eight little one week old babies (i could not resist)

    Paper towels also work well--I put down a couple of layers in the brooder for the first few days, then add pine shavings on top after a week. No leg issues

    Permanent Coop *and* Chicken Tractor for a Small Flock?

    The hub wants our tractor to be movable (by me), and the dimensions required for 7 birds would make it large, heavy, and unwieldy. We are using a lot of reclaimed materials rather than purchasing, so we need to make do with what we have at hand. We like the idea of a tractor because it's not...

    Permanent Coop *and* Chicken Tractor for a Small Flock?

    We are building a permanent coop and also a smaller chicken tractor for various reasons, but I have a concern that the flock won't take kindly to being separated...? We have 7 girls right now (they are a week old today!), and I don't want to stress them as adults by randomly switching up their...

    Worst tragedy ever!!! will they die?????

    I have WHAT in my yard? : We have had many broods over the last few years, and we have learned to wire tie the waterer to the side of the container or in some other fashion tie it to something. Even ones with rocks in them they have managed to tip. This is a great tip--I never would have...

    TSC Special Breed

    Yes, agreed! This thread was an eye-opener...I guess since I have only been to my local TSC and no others, I just assumed that they were all the same It bums me out that the poor little chicks have to suffer because of some idiot staff.

    Chick temperament vs. adult temperament

    My kiddos and I are loving and gentle to our wee brood of seven, but the little things are still skittish when we approach. I read another thread about this and plan to utilize some of the ideas to "tame" them a bit, but I worry about a couple of things: that the skittishness will persist to...

    TSC Special Breed

    It's been interesting (and kinda sad) to read everyone's descriptions of their local TSC's attitude toward Chick Days. Mine is fantastic in comparison... granted, it is impossible to find help with the chicks when you need it (hence I help myself!), but the bins are clean, the chicks are...

    OK...Tetra Tint question....

    Quote: Thank goodness someone asked, because I thought I must just be an idiot when I saw the bin at TSC and didn't know! I even felt too shy to ask when I was there in case it was some sort of obvious chicken knowledge that I was ignorant of--
