First this is my cat Willow, she was testing out the light bulb temp before the chicks got there.

This is Willow again, everytime i came in the room all i could see is her ears and i new she was in there. Willow will be having her back left leg amputated soon due to cancer :*(

Now on to the chicks. I got 6 Golden Comets and 2 Amber Links. These are our first c hicks ever, we were going to get a Bantam but the girl said that the others could pick on it because it was going to be so much smaller then the others, is this true?

Thanks,

They are just marbles.. All mine are Americauna Mixes so they are standards.. I do it because they will fall asleep in the water and drown. If you use the pebbles that almost never happens. If you have any other questions let me know. I'm by no means an expert but I have raised chicks 3times and haven't lost one. GOOD LUCK!
