The first week with the chicks

May 4, 2024 1 min to read

This week we put together the chicken’s bucket feeder (still want a bucket waterer – soon!) and happily watched them start to use it. It’ll be much easier to fill it every few days, and not have their feed pooped in.

They’re so cute at this stage, I want to enjoy it before they get to the molting adolescent stage that isn’t that cute!

I also learned this week that chickens sunbathe and look sick or dead when they do!
