New flock members!

[Ceakmama]

I just brought 4 baby chicks home to eventually join my Fluff Bottomed Girls in the big coop. They're Red Star, so I'm excited to see what they'll grow up to look like. My others are a barnyard mix of Easter Eggers, Leghorn, and Barred Rock parents. I hope these all turn out to be pullets (90% chance).

*I haven't put them in the brooder yet. The picture is of them in the box from the store.

Aww! It’s going to be so fun watching them grow!

In the brooder! Does our set up look good?

Yep, although they will outgrow it fast, knowing from using the same brooder method. Keep us updated!!

Will do! The last time we used a large dog crate and it was such a mess. I'll have to figure out a better set up when they get big enough to jump out.

Oh yeah, it might be bigger but so messy.
