Constant, loud parties in the brooder

[Miss Lydia]

you better watch them though their influence might rub off...

Their influence rubbed off on my Chicks.....

Now I have loud parties from my Brooder!!

Since I put the roosting sticks in yesterday they have been very, very active!

I even had to put the marbles back in the waterer's trough say they wouldn't splash it all out!

Now, who do I call to remedy this? Your kids are out of control and are a bad influence on mine! Bad parent! BAD!!

I have been following this thread since this morning and I must say you have made my day lol. Mine had the same parties woke me up at 3 in the morning. Turned up the portable heater and turned off the light. Finally quieted down. This last hatch was the worst. Other two no problems.

Petej-I hate to tell you this, but there is noone to call-BYC is the only place I could come for some support.
If the noise gets to be more than you can bear, you may have to turn them in yourself-I know, I know, that would be a horrible thing to do, but it may be your only option.

I know what you mean about the water-I couldn't believe the fact that mine figured out a way to turn over their waterer-they were a few days old.
Lastly, I do admit it, my kids are WAY out of control...I'm working on it...

Are you sure their not ducks? better look again...

easttxchick I have to agree with Petej here. Since working with your pictures, my three week olds have started a mosh pit of their own. They haven't knocked over the water yet but they keep knocking over the food and if I don't get a cover on my brooder soon they are going to break out! You really need to get those two ruffians under control!

Miss Lydia-ya know, they could be ducks in chick costumes...I guess I need to look into that. My ducks have always been pretty calm in the brooder, though. It's a possibility.
dsqrd-I am so sorry-I'm afraid my babies are corrupting all of the other chicks in the world-it HAS to be some kind of mind control thing they have hidden in the brooder box. I guess I'll have to search it later. Lord knows what all I'll find in there, though. Now I'm afraid...

easttxchick check under the puppy pads for two sets of these

This could be how they are planning on taking over!

 

[easttxchick]

Nope, no squiggly glasses, dsqrd.
All I found was a bear trap and some dynamite. Think I should be worried?
Maybe next time, I'll get DH to search.

 

[dsqard]

OK I am really convinced that the bear trap and the dynamite are booby traps to keep you from discovering either these:

(brain washing helmets!)

or a box of tin foil so they can make these:

They are obviously out to take over your house first and then the world. We all have to count on you or your DH to save us all!
