New Chicks arrive today!

Most important thing is clean water! Unless the chicks look weak you really don’t need to add anything to the water. By now they have had access to water and food for a few days so if everyone is active, eating and drinking your off to a good start. They will likely poop in the waterer and feeder so just keep those as clean as possible and you should be good. Don’t forget everything is new to them already so they do need anything else to worry about. A few weeks from now you can expose them to other things. They are very resilient little creatures for sure.
 
Hi all. They are officially a week and a day old. Everyone is doing great. Feathers on wings and butt are coming in. I love them. They are so cute. I go out a couple times a day and hold them and check to make sure they are ok. My aunt has been here the last few days and has been helping me with them. Such fun. The chicken condo is nearing the official completion. It's soooooo exciting. No regrets so far.
 
They have discovered their wings....

I can't believe how fast these babies grow. I think I want to move them into their coop soon....and set up their brooder in there. Their auto door will be in next week and the run is almost done. I still have time to build their roost and poopy box.
