Baby Buffs need to get outside to run, play, and eat grass and bugs, to develop their muscles. They do not do well confined to a small coop.They also need less heat as chicks than many other breeds. They do need to be on MEDICATED chick starter for 4 months to grow well too. Worm those ckicks with Wazine at 2, and 4 weeks also. The Buffs eat enough without you feeding worms !

What is the dosage for 4 wk old orps of wazine. I have a few American white orps. that I will need to worm. Thanks They are my hatches
Both you and Cyrus. You need to WORM ! Chicks are born with worms from inside and outside the shell. I worm at 2, 4, 6, weeks with Wazine at 1 tsp per gallonof water . At 8, 10, 12, 14 and 16 weeks, my Orps are wormed with 1/2 CC Safeguard 10 % liquid Goat wormer. Each bird gets it down the throat. Grown birds get 1 CC. after 20 weeks.
