    Please help :(

    I have 5, day old chicks in my brooder. All are doing extremely well, however my one barred rock wants to keep chirping really loudly. They’re eating and drinking like normal and have a full crop. What could this be? I’m very worried. I checked for pasty butt and there wasn’t any and the temp is...

    I just got my new chicks today, and it seems like one may be sick. The haven’t been moving around much, typically laying down on the heated side of the brooder.

    Any idea what breeds they are?

    Saturday we bought 16 new baby chicks from our local TSC but i have no idea what breed any of them are! I bought the last 6 larger yellow ones they had left from one bin for $1.99 but there was nothing saying what kind they were. Also purchased 10 out of the bin titled bantam straight runs. If...

    Do hens know if baby chicks are theirs if they were hatched in incubater?

    This is prob a dumb question. I would assume they don’t but my chicks mom is very fascinated with them. The chicks are inside their own little cage so the big girls won’t hurt them. What do you guys think?

    Howdy, semi newbie here.

    My hubby keeps bringing chicks home (I'm open to it)! 6 chicks moved in from TS 2 weeks ago, not positive how old they actually are. We lost one :( They're growing fast, hopping/flying out of their crate onto the ledge. Found some poop on the wall, how'd they do that? The brood is/ is in our...

    A Case of Pasty Butt

    So out of my new chicks I got from TSC, one has pasty butt. I cleared the poop out from her vent and got it out of her down, but I’m still worried about her. She keeps picking at her butt and so do the other chicks. I did just see her poop for the first time since clearing it up though! That’s...

I got a 75w red reptile heat lamp and have them in a plastic bin with paper towels, food and water. My thermometer on the side of the bin reads 84. The chicks hatched within the last 4...

    Moving baby chicks with momma

    Hi! I have a hen setting on 14 eggs. She’s preferable to the laying box that happens to be about 2 feet off the ground. I’d prefer not to move her now, the eggs are due to hatch in about a week. What should I do about getting the checks down to a safe height once they’re born? Once the eggs...
