In the Brooder
I've read a lot of the spider threads and it seems grown chickens love and devour them, but what about babies? I have 3 day old chicks in a corral in my basement, and twice now I have come down in the early morn to check on them and have found big nasty black spiders that seem very interested in my babies. They set up shop at the base of the corral. They are no bigger than a quarter, but my motherly instincts have been perked. Lol
