Adorable! I just bought 2 ducklings from TSC also a few days ago. 1 Welsh Harlequin and 1 Golden 300. They're so cute. Good luck with your babies!

You probably already know this, but in the video one of your chicks look like they have pasty butt. Just letting you know :D


Actually, she sat in a wet one on the ride home and it stuck. I washed it off for her, though. And, thank you for saying something. A lot of chick deaths happen when stuff like that is missed.

Sure. The one I grabbed to use from my previous brood had been in the big chicken run for years and had a very slow leak around the gasket so it's back with the big girls. This new one I knocked together with a 64oz juice bottle (Publix generic) and some 17ga galvanized electric fence wire. The fence wire is a lot easier to manipulate than that heavier stuff was and it's still plenty of support.


BTW, the most difficult part is installing the nipple in a cap. Resist the urge to make a bigger hole. 11/32 isn't easy but it does make for a tight seal.

It's a little hard to see the wire so I highlighted where it wraps. Two rings around connected to one that goes over for the hanging. It's on a quick link only because I needed one for the thicker wire, it's not really needed for this one

I'll totally post pics when they arrive. Should be a good variety of cuteness!. We've got 2 Rhode Island Reds, 1 Welsummer, 1 Blue Splash Maran, 1 Golden Cuckoo Maran, 1 Light brown Leghorn, 1 Silver Gray Dorking, 2 Creasted Cream Legbars, 1 Super Blue layer, 2 Blue Favaucana, 3 Easter Eggers, 1 (male) Blue Splash Amerucana for a Roo :)
Should be a good color of eggs and pretty birds.
