So I have found myself raising 4 chicks for the fresh eggs. I have never raised them from babies before and I am excited to learn all I can. I have taken care of adult hens but never had any of my own. Any advice that can be given I am open to. Thanks in advance.
The best place to start learning is in the Learning Center! It's full of interesting articles that will help you get off on the right foot. Best of luck to you, thanks for joining us!
