Chirping
I had chickens 40 years ago, but left the farm and haven't had them since . Things have changed a lot! Hubby and I retired to 5 acres in FL and we've built a nice big coop. Wanting to get a mixture of chicks to start off with, but want to make sure I have everything ready before I order them. Do I need to feed the medicated crumbles? I'm pretty sure we didn't have that when I had chickens before. Shoot, we didn't even have computers or Amazon! Now, I go online and there are so many hatcheries it boggles the mind. I think I've figured out what kind of hen's I want, but I can't find a hatchery that has all of them. Since I want around 20, I thought I'd order them all at once. Will it hurt to order from 2 hatcheries at the same time? One last question for this time How long does it take to get the chicks after you order them? Thanks!
