My set up is a bit limiting but i would like to make my own baby chicks instead of having to purchase them.
I have the hen coop which is insulated, and my meat coop which is more like a pen. my meat coop is pretty much occupied all summer and in the winter it would be too cold. is there a way i could hatch the eggs (under a broody) with the rest of the flock
when i got my chicks they were all different ages and they didn't even need the light on, because of the difference the big ones kept the littler ones warm.
i should mention they will not be free ranged but will have a pretty decent sized run
