Hey everyone. Been very busy here. I got 8 Bantam chicks on Saturday at tractor supply and all but 1 died. 4 died Saturday and 3 died Sunday. They was my daughter’s chicks. Called them to see if more came in but not yet.

Could be that they were chilled in transport and survived until you bought them, but were never going to survive long term.
They are supposed to guarantee them a few days. Did they have pasty butt?
I don't think the new TSC setups are keeping them warm enough, especially the bantams...
I so agree with you.
I couldn’t tell. The guy was blocking the view as he tried to talk me out of ducklings (khakis) I wasn’t getting anyway. The plastic was too dirty to see in from the side.
Yeah, I was wondering the same thing. The chicks keep cheeping there. And those little bantams don't look too good and there were only about 4 chicks left there. And most chicks has pasty butts.
I don't think most of the workers know that those heat plates need to be down low so they actually keep them warm enough and I don't think a lot of them care enough to clean up pasty butt. That or they don't know the seriousness of it.
I would like to find someone close to me that has bantams that I could get chicks from. So I am not getting them from TSC.
Here is some pictures of the lonely chick. It is getting spoiled.
