Chick Instructions on one page!

Newbie here and I'm a fessin' up to being totally ignorant about this subject. THAT is why I joined BYC to learn and grow personally and learn how to raise healthy chickens to feed our family.

Simple, straightforward advice giving the reason behind each piece. It is easier to remember advice when you know why should or should not do something. Very helpful.

Good article with helpful instructions.

Thanks for this article. I learnt heaps and really appreciate you taking the time to share this. I want the best for the chicks I hatch.

Very detailed but still easy to read.

Very good idea to have a thorough written note to go with the birds, both for the buyer and seller. People only remember half of what's been said to them, pen on paper is permanent.

Like Shad, I, too, find it hard to believe your article has not been reviewed more. Giving an instruction sheet is an excellent idea. And yours is an excellent tutorial. I am certain it helps more than hurts.

Also, as soon as I started reading it, I realized you have a secret. You are a kind-hearted fella, Ralphie!

Maybe more people don’t need to read this...and expose your crusty persona as a fraud!

I'm not sure why this doesn't have more reviews. Maybe it was written before the current review system was put in place.
Just having an instruction sheet to give to the purchaser is a good idea. This sheet has some excellent advice, particularly regarding the handling of chicks and one should not expect 100% survival rate.
