Welcome, and be sure to ask anyone questions whenever you need to- we all love to talk poultry and are happy to help. If you have any questions you'd like to just read about, you can go to the learning center or browse around on my BYC page - I wrote a bunch of articles to help new folks out.
I feel sooo much better that on day 3 all the chicks seem to be happy and healthy. Whew! I am also happy to know I have people here to help on this exciting new adventure we've embarked on. Thanks again!
check how hot it gets in the garage without the heat light. in july my shed can reach temperatures of 130 degrees and i dont leave chicks in there for the summer. it is ideal in the spring and fall when you only need the light on at night.
