Heyho BYC international community,
We live on an island off the Australian coast on a beautiful subtropical acre. Our 3yr old grandson's kindy is having an incubation to hatching experience and we are hoping to receive all 12 chickies just before Easter. Until then I'm doing a crash course and reading everything I can about caring for 2-6week olds and trying to keep ahead with the next steps and what they involve. We have a ready-made 8mx5m 2-room coop as we've recently moved onto the island. Now taking the plunge!!
