chooks4life: THANK YOU so much, you taught me a lot :)
I'm new to chickens, we only have 6 chicks, but Next Year we'll have a grown up hen to help the wee ones. For now these 6 are stuck with me.
Where can you suggest I learn more about the chicken poos? The cecal ones are indeed stinking up the brooder!! Tonight my husband asked me how often they empty that poo vs regular poo, and lo I now need to further my poo education :)
