Mom did take the criticism well as I wasn't a jersey about it. She said she will sell some of her chicks because she has too many unfortunately there are some that are sick and hopefully she doesn't sell a sick one! But she has also been cleaning her coop better and I haven't been able to help because we've been busy finishing our own!Better than expected! I haven't yet started my own flock but have been watching her birds closely. I am going to start with around 7 hens and 1 rooster. I'm going to pick healthy ones (no diarrhea, scratchy voice, etc...). I'm going to put Apple Cider Vinegar in the water and have them free range until it gets too cold with a little chicken feed available. We have the fence to finish and our coop and everything will be ready so we are around 2-4 weeks away from beginning!!! I'm nervous and excited.
