Haha. Keep resisting, you might even convince yourself...

And maybe scrounge up some wood scraps, too.

Sounds cool. Do you take pics on your walks?

LOL you can always tell when I'm on my phone since there are so many typos!

Uh oh! No, no, WV!

Hey all. I'm still sick and miserable so you won't see much of me today.

I have a total of 167 chicks and poults either on the ground or in the bator or hatcher. If I set any more this season, it will be small batches of special eggs.

I finished my two story brooder yesterday. It should hold 150 chicks on one level for the first week, then 75 on each level through 4 weeks, when they graduate to the floor. I ordered some FlexWatt to build a hover, but that will be added later as I am about to embark on travel. What I do need is to find a design for chick feeders that can hold a lot and not allow them to scratch it out, and that is near floor level so the littlest ones can reach it. I need to be able to put in at least 5 pounds of starter crumbles for constant dispensing, and room for at least 30 chicks to eat at once. Any suggestions?

Sorry you aren't feeling well!

Hope you're all better very soon!

I'm no help with the feeder, but I bet other peeps will have ideas.

And I forgot that I need a solution for waterers. It's still winter here, snowing today, freezing overnight every night. I can't use the garden hose yet so I need gravity fed waterers that can be easily filled without removing, so a bucket and float system suitable for chicks is what I really need.

First fluffed up silver. 3 more drying off in the bator and some more internally pipped.
