I would love to hatch my own eggs but the chance there's a chance there would be a roo also, were having enough stress and difficulty from the new black rock I just bought.

I had pretty much the same set up. I was losing about a chick a day. I don't know why. I moved them into the water troughs that I have and haven't lost one since. Maybe it puts off a gas. Maybe its to small a space for that light. I don't know. I quit using the totes except for emergency situations.

Woohoo. It only costs about 1950 dollars to hatch and raise one chick. Lets get going.
