The Moonshiner's Chick Chat

[Bonkerelli]

My 25 mystery Bantams shipped out yesterday! SSSSOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO excited! My first time mail ordering chicks.

Also I just figured out something:
Chicken math is a lot like Common Core. If you can prove 2 chicks + 2 chickens = 40 chickens.. then 40 chickens you shall have!

How many hundreds of eggs could that baby hold?

I'd definitely go for it if you have the space

I'd definitely go for it if you have the space

Especially if they come with the racks. Those things are super sturdy

No, suppose that's who's trying to get rid of it.

How many hundreds of eggs could that baby hold?

Looks like a 40 give or take model.

I'd definitely go for it if you have the space

I mean I can always throw the couch out to make space.

My concern is how much it weighs. I'd have to be able to haul it then no idea how I'd unload it or move it.
I could go with putting it in the garage. That's a concrete floor.

Got my mystery Bantam chicks today! Bought 25 and received 28! All healthy Looks like I got some Blue and Black Silkies, Old English Game (almost a 1/3 of what I have), and few I could guess as Orpington and maybe Japanese. Will know as they grow!

Old English Game (almost a 1/3 of what I have),

We ordered as a 4H club once years ago. Ended up with like 20 extra (we didn't even order any in the first place ) OEGB bb reds
