Do you happen to keep g!we fowl? I am not looking to fight birds but I would sometimes let them out. Keeping more than one would be a problem and tethering seems like a good idea. I saw a farm once in passing where a person must have had 50 rooster tethered and each had a small A-frame to keep...
Doesn't matter. Maybe it will help someone else. I always try to use Ideal 1st and Cackle 2nd. Both have been great for me. Please realize that boxes of chicks go through many rides and hands before they get to you and after they leave the hatchery. They are not always warm enough on those rides...
Well I left home at 7 am and got back at 5:30 pm BUT I got 10 Norwegian Jaerhon chicks! Unfortunately they are all pullets! Will have to look for some cockerels/roosters!
I may have found 10 female chicks about 4 1/2 hrs from me. Will know by this weekend!
OH...Ideal has already sold out. I am on a waiting list but I am not holding my breath!!
TY for your reply!
