Welcome to our FUNomenal Flock!
I hope you enjoy BYC as much as we do!

Hello there and welcome to BYC!

Sorry about the chicks you lost. What is the temp in your brooder? Are they piling up on each other or laying out wings stretched on the sides?

Hello, Carole, and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.
Nice brooder set up.

Hi Carole, some good advice from the previous greeters...NutriDrench, and a check on the brooder temp. It's sad to lose them, but it happens sometimes.

Best of luck with your new chicks and always feel free to ask questions!

Welcome to BYC, Carole! Sorry about your chicks, those are some nice breeds that you have there.

Thanks! They are a new venture, we’ve only had Rhode Island Red xLeghorns in the past, except for the couple of Barred Rock recently. I’m excited to watch them grow!

They are all pretty spread out. A few bunch at a time here and there but no major huddling.
