Today we picked out 10 day old chicks. We went in for 4-6 and came home with 8. We have two Salmon favorolles, 2 Sicilian buttercups, buff orpington, buff bramha, gold sex link, and one more;-)
I have them in a rubbermain container with food, water with Sav a Chick in it, heat lamp and then the container is in the bathtub wiht the enclosure door closed and the bathroom door closed. I've been checking on them every 10 minutes so far!! We lost a hen to a bobcat two days ago, and I am suddenly aware at how delicate they can be. I just want to make sure that I am doing everything correctly.
Thanks.
