Good luck with your bees. I hope they make it. 

I had to give em sugar water hopefully these next few warm days they can get some comb built up before the next cold snap doing OK so far

It's funny. I remember my first batch of chicks - 14 of 'em - and they stayed in this brooder until they were 6 weeks old and it never looked so small. These guys are just over 2 weeks and I'm already thinking of finding them something bigger! I chickened out on just dirt, and added a light layer of shavings on the top, but next time, I will just do the dirt. The smell is already so much better and it gives the chicks more to play in.

Are those feather dusters?

Wow! They are really active!

Ha. Yes. Getting a little thin now, but they've gone through 4 batches of chicks. I think it gives them a "little" taste of "Mom"

Typical weekend trip to TS for horse/chicken stuff. Picked up some scratch and cracked corn and birdseed. The TS in Magnolia has their 'Chick Days' displays out with some cute little coops but only had a couple of bins of CR straight run. Most folks around here like the eye candy breeds rather than the meat ones. Livengood Feed in Tomball ended up with a lot of Red SL last year and this year they had ordered Silkies, Marans, Welsummers, Barnevelders and Orps and sold them as fast as they have come in.

Any of you Texas honey heads want to weigh in on this? I'm a wanna bee keeper who has't taken the plunge yet, but I think this is a pretty cool concept.

Don't have bees now but my parents did when I was young. I remember it being an all day process to get the honey. I think this would be amazing!
