Day Two: Our first baby chicks:Husband created a Chick-Cam! Live!

How did you go about doing that? You must have the brooder in the house? Mine is out in the garage so I would have to use a wireless camera of some type?

Very cool nipple waterer. How did you get them to use it?

I'll answer since a couple of people have asked... Once you get the babies in the brooder, just tap in the silver part. Normally, mine immidiately come over to try it out just out of pure curiosity. Older chickens that are not used to them are much more of a challenge to teach.

I'm not sure what the op made her waterer out of, but this is mine for the brooder: https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=389477

Haha! I was just watching your chicks and one of the black ones had its head hanging down while sleeping on that block in your brooder!

So cute! Did you name your chicks yet?
