Just bought 4 baby chicks

[GoldenGirlsChicks]

Hello from the Texas hill country. Dabbling in prepping and decided to learn about chickens. We just bought 4 baby chicks from Tractor Supply and bought the wooden brooding box and the starter kit along with food, treats and something to mix with water. We are enjoying watching them moving about the box. We got them for egg production.
