You'll have to cut both their heads off at the same time with extra large shears. It's the only way.

I think I'm going to put them in bed with me tonight.


They can't possibly stay on the other side of the house all by their little bitty self's.

This doesn’t sound like Kiki... I think KDog has hacked into Kiki’s account.

I just put them to bed.
I'm even letting them stay warm tonight.
Right at 85.

No.... am I supposed to?

I never do. I turned it down to medium so they would sleep under rather than in front of the cave since I got this batch in late March rather than mid February. But it's too much hassle to climb in there to flip the switch and then you have to remember to turn it back on again. So, I just leave it until they go to the roost. They've all gone around 4-5 weeks without any push from me. And then I don't have to stress over whether they're ready.

Okay good. Glad it is not just me lol I think I willing do this. They seem happy so I don’t wanna mess with anything. Especially this weekend since I won’t be home hardly at all to check on them if they get cold or hate it. And yes, knowing me, I would forget to turn it back on lol

I think TSC is done with chicks as they have all the stuff gone but the local feed store still has a couple more shipments this week and next week and they just got assorted feather footed breeds in this week and silkies next week and I’m really tempted to get more

Their minimum is only 3 per ship date so a lot more doable than TSC’s minimum of 6.... hmmmmm.... those feather footeds sure are tempting...

 

[ShrekDawg]

Possible breeds.

Btw yes I know I don’t actually have the room and can’t. But I wish.

Honestly kind of tempted to build another coop and get some.
