I know this is the duck forum but had to let ya'll know first.. Hubby bought me 3 baby chicks this morning at Brazos Feed. !!!!!! two rode Island reds and one other one that is rode Island something.. it more creamy yellow and the other two are darker red.. !!!!!!
He decided he'd like some chicken eggs sometimes besides the duck eggs. LOL..
I bought two 25 lb bags fo chick starter as I had a 5.00 coupon for it.. and picked up the mazuri for the ducks. got pine bedding for the chicks, baby grit. I have the Durvet for poultry. I have a 60 watt bulb beside them for warmth. I still had the waterer and feeder from the duckling..
What else do I need??
How long before they can go out side?? I haven't had chicks before so this is new.. I'm sooooooo Tickled..
