I need to get an incubator for next year. Or make one. :]
He still hasnt eaten, but he's doing a bit better still. It has to be the fluffiest chick ever, he cant die. Just because of that, he shall live!! (Fingers crossed)
Ive been thinking..what do you all think about this idea? Instead of buying property and a house, Im considering buying a house, and a lot. Some houses are cheap, and lots w/o houses are really cheap. But when theyre put together, theyre really expensive. I mean, it wont happen tomorrow, but if i fenced it in really well and had a livestock dog, then chickens and goats, and whatever else should be okay. And then eventually (hopefully) I could get a house on the lot with the animals, and sell the other house. I know this is a stretch, but Im trying to plan everything out. Is it a good idea? Its more feasible then the others.
Oh right..3
You might have to feed that little chick with an eyedropper (just place liquid food on the tongue don't try to put the food in his throat). If he's not eating or drinking he won't make it and I do have a soft spot in my heart for super fluffy butts!
As far as a separate house and lot, I'm not an expert but it seems like you'd need water, at least, on the lot to keep critters and that is one of the big hurdles to putting your own house up on that lot (for small electric loads you can buy a small solar panel). Also it would make me nervous to be so far away from my animals in case of emergency.
You can get a small manufactured home for a lot less and that would be fine til you can save money to build something a little bigger. I'm with Penturner on this subject. If more of us lived below our means we'd be in better shape so it's smart of you to be looking at different alternatives and planning now.
two-hoo!!!
