I need to add some sticks and stuff in their now. Lol they really trying to roost lol some like to stand on the watering can which makes the water poopy ...
I can't wait to see what they are going to turn into lol. I'm trying to guess what they are since they are barnyard mix.
Ohhh I hear you. Sometimes I just want them to be all outside but other times it's nice to see them in the evening when everyone is gone to bed and house is quiet lol. I'm looking forward for them to grow big enough to free range a bit. We have our front yard graded now I'm kinda regretting it...
I had to go downstairs at night after my kids gone to bed to spend sometime with them lol had to wake then up from the dark room 😂😂
My kids love spending time with them after breakfast to feed them some eggs and corn.
They are really fun to watch. I usually take them outside in an enclosed run...

Yup. I always want more 😂😂 plus I am gonna think about how I'm gonna breed them and keep a healthy stock and be more self sustainable. It's hard to find hatching eggs where I am.
Thank you so much for your reply
I fed her some molasses water last night and left her in the incubator.
Checked on her this morning, she fluffed up a little bit on spots. So I took her out and gave her a little bath with warm water . Pat dried and back to the Bator she goes lol.
I'm off to...
I left her in the incubator with two other chicks. I took him out trying to wash her but she is too stressed and almost flip over kicking. I gave him some molasses water to give him some strength.see how it goes tomorrow
HELP guys
I have one chick ( possibly my last hatch) that's very sticky and weak. He has been hatched for a few hours now and not fluffed up at all.
I'm planning on giving him some molasses water and let him rest in the incubator but how can I wash him ? Wait till he is stronger ?
Thank you
