Hi there!
So, last evening we came home with 9 adorable baby chicks! 3 Buff Orpingtons, 3 Silver Laced Wyandottes, and 3 Speckled Sussex! The lady at Rural King says they are all around 2 weeks old, and they are all happily playing, napping, eating, drinking, and making messes!
From what I've read, it seems you are supposed to clean and scrub their waterer out everyday, but I can't figure out what type of cleaner you are supposed to use:
Regular Orange-scented Dish Soap?
Unscented Castille Soap?
Or is just Vinegar enough?
I see that some folks use dish soap on their adult hen's waterers, but is it okay for our little ones?
Thanks and Blessings!!
