Strange thing happened!
I went to the feed store and bought a red light and a big pack of wood shavings. When I got home the pecking had reduced some but one was definately being a menace.
I changed the clear bulb to the red one and all hell broke loose!
They alll freaked and ran away from it...
Ah! Ok, I will shred the newspaper first, I didn't know about that. I have a thin layer of wood shavings in there now, is that enough or will it still be as slippery?
We are having a bit of a problem with one of the Red's pecking the other chicks in the eyes, is that normal or does that mean...
The chickies are here!
We got 1 black sex-link, 2 Bard Rocks, 2 Rhode Island Reds and 1 Buff Orpington, and they are so cute!
They took to the water really fast, I thought it would take them awhile, but they were pretty thrirsty it seems.
Noisey little buggers though, peep, peep, PEEP!
