Thank you for sharing..
Very informative video.
We use two different hatcheries. Welp in Iowa and Meyer in Ohio. Both can be found by searching the internet.
Where do you order or buy chicklets?
I use dirt for litter. Just plain old dirt (or any soil). Never smells and never needs replacing. You can even grow small nibble plants on it – chicks love them.
Algae is naturally occurring. Unless I am to buy filtered or distilled water there is algae in the water. As a matter of fact it is likely that you drink algae on a daily basis. It does not look pretty, I’ll admit that, but it is in every livestock water trough, especially if you water from a creek or pond, and will not hurt the animals.
No, they don’t eat the sawdust to my knowledge but it wouldn’t hurt them if they did. Chickens will eat some pretty crazy stuff. When we process we will have some drop jaw moments if we open the crop up to see what is in it.
baby chicks dont eat the sawdust?
no offence but those water feeders and green and a bit gross looking >.<
