10 week old chicks too cold?

It has been a little dry here too...

Hey!
My 2 GLW's are my first and only too!
Mostly pets as well. Same age roughly, I was told mine were hatched July 17-19.

I remember you from the Wyandotte thread, didn't realize our situation was so similar, I'm in Berwyn, right outside Chicago, Il.

I made my coop with plenty of overhead ventilation and have become very comfortable knowing I won't be using a light or heat etc. Recently been watching them drink from the run bucket in the morning, so I took the applesauce water container out of the coop coop, since they don't seem to use it anyway.

Gotta add one gutter to keep it dry dry and I'm ready for that -28degrees again! Bloody hell!

Anyway!

I'm looking forward to spring eggs, can't wait to share the journey with you!

Nice to meet you! Don't tell Mildred & Louise that I wanted glw but went with slw because of hatch dates & availability. I'm in Columbus, Indiana, about 40 miles south of Indianapolis. Can you share any pictures of your young ladies?

They are gorgeous, pretty lacing! Do they have cute fuzzy butts?

Oh yeah!

I was actually quite amazed at how cute they remained....even thru the vulture stage!
