The Chicken Chronicles - Part 2


So, we're down to the last few days before the babies start coming, so I stocked up with starter food and pine bedding. 



This is our brooder. Nala generously shared one of her dog luxury items because, of course, it's not hot enough for a girl to be poolside quite yet. 


Yellow partitions made slightly higher sides.
Feeder and waterer set.
Warmer ready to go.
Paper towel over the bedding for the first few days to discourage filling up on pine shavings. Chickens are worse than goats... they'll eat just about anything.


Our little coop is done. 
They won't live here until about 6-8 weeks old.
