So I got my brooder all ready besides my wood chips, food/water and I still have like 17 days to
Go, lol! At least I'm prepared!


Good job!!! I usually wait to long and the chicks are already born and I'm running around like a chicken with its head cut off.

Nothing like being prepared ahead of time! Gives you time to work out any kinks...

If I may, I'd recommend paper towels or absorbent pads for the first few days. Newborn chicks don't know the difference between chick feed and wood chips, and impacted crops isn't something you want to have to deal with. Just my 2c. Best of luck with your hatch!!!

I did that with my first hatch cuz I saw you give that advice to someone else. I bought puppy training pads and used them for a few days.

I haven't been on too much lately (too much going on), so I haven't seen much of you. How have you been doing?

I still use pads for the first week with every hatch, and have zero issues. Once I put shavings in, I also give chick grit just to be safe.
