I have 10day old chicks in a brooder on my back porch. Temp is electronically controlled to keep one corner the right temperature...
It’s sitting at 90.
Every night, for the last 3 nights, I find the chicks ALL huddled under a nipple drinker, absolutely soaked. All 12, huddled together, drenched. A different drinker every time. They’re fine all day. 8pm hits and they all decide its shower time.... The first night I freaked and dried everyone. Night 2 I let them dry themselves... now night 3 and I am just not amused. Should I take up the drinker at night?
