    Now, take a deep breath, eat a good meal, soak in the tub until the water gets chilly and get a good night's sleep! God bless & keep growing.

    It can be overwhelming to start a new farm and fix up the house at the same time. There is no need to be embarrassed. We know your family works hard, and we look forward to growing with you!!

  • @sandyoklahomatransient8557

    I giggled when you mentioned you were driving home, and the post office called to tell you the chicks arrived. I'm sure w'ell be seeing 4 legged critters soon on your farm.

  • @stephaniewilson3955
    @stephaniewilson3955 Před 2 lety +1

    When the weather is fine other homesteaders put their chicks out earlier. The chicks seem to love it and thrive.

  • @jasonhatfield4747
    @jasonhatfield4747 Před 2 lety +5

    That brooder is a perfect size for the first 2 weeks of life (even for that many birds). After that you can move them to a bigger space, even outdoors if you have the weather for it.

    @StoneKathryn Před 2 lety +4

    I'm so glad you got to the post office in time to get your chicks! It's amazing that they got to the post office ahead of you. It must be the overnight drivers that delivered them quickly to your post office. I'm glad you could set up your cute brooder. The chicks look very healthy. Wow, still getting stuff back from your neighbors from the move. The plastic comtainer nest box is fine Jason. I'm glad that most of the hens seem to be using it. Things will get more normal as you get set up. No rush! Chickens can handle change pretty well. They adapt pretty quickly. You guys look happy too. You're doing a great job!
