  • Should you vaccinate baby chicks? Give them medicated or non-medicated feed? How toast up their brooder? Baby chicks have lots of critical choices that will determine their health when they are first born.

    I really enjoy how you all take care of everything.....Just because they're animals doesn't mean they can be just left to themselves. You gotta take care of them so you get the benefits of good nutrition from them. Thanks for what you're doing and congratulations on the new baby in your other video.

    Excellent information 👍🏻 I never added the silver but ACV--for sure. No vaccine/no medication is the way to go. Another great video 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻- lacy 🤓

    We had chicken's about 4 years ago and had to give them away 😔 at that time we let the hen's hatch and raise baby chicks 😊
    5 months ago we decided to buy Chick's 🤗 and had the same questions 🤔 Thank you for confirming we made the right choices 🙂
    God Bless you and your Family 🙏

    I am in total agreement with you about the vaccinations & the feed. I am glad to know that the chicks in the stores are not vaccinated. That was one reason why I was considering getting an incubator & hatching my own this year. Last summer was the first time that I had gotten baby chicks, & at the moment I have a turkey setting on eggs, & I have put about 4 chicken eggs under her. So, I really appreciate the info on the apple cider vinegar & the silver. I'll definitely be doing that. I always appreciate your videos! 🙂

    It’s so funny how the chickens follow him towards the end

    I don't use any medicated feed for our chicks. They get plain water, chick starter and on week two we introduce a bowl full of our outdoor garden soil/compost for them to dust bath in. By the middle of week two we start introducing a few greens and some extra bugs. They love it. Ours just turned 4 weeks old and we have moved them to an outside brooder house where they have access to the ground but completely safe from predators. They can also see all our other chickens during the day when the big girls are out free ranging. This week I'm introducing them to fermented chick starter. Our older girls all get fermented feed so this way the littles will be acclimated to a wet feed.

    Those splash Marans are so cute!!!! We have 16 eggs in an incubator for our first time hatching. All came from our own hens. 16 out of 21 viable at day 12 so here’s to hoping for a successful hatch like yours.

    Thought I would add that we used your idea of feeding the chicken's out of o old gutter but we will nail it on the coop wall about a foot off the floor 🙂 and we are also putting a compost ben into the run 😊 Thank you so much for all your good advice and God Bless You All 🙏
    We are looking at the automatic door openers but can't click on your Link 🤔 maybe type it in without spaces

    Do you put the drops in with the apple cider vinegar or alternate between? Thank you to all of you chicken moms and dad's for all of your experiences.

    I have picky hen’s and they live to waste their food I’ve tried pellets and crumble your hens seem to live their feed so I guess I’m simply asking how much waste do you have and how can I fix mine lol

    • @AcresOfAdventure
      @AcresOfAdventure  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You can buy some feeders that help chickens from wasting too much. If you feel like it’s still bad maybe that just need a different feed? We haven’t had that problem so not sure exactly, hope this helps!

    My chicks are unmedicated and unvaccinated. I will give medicine when needed, but I'm really not a big believer in broadly giving prophylactic medications to anyone, but especially to a tiny flock of six. I might have a different opinion if I had 300 birds but I don't, I have six.

    • @AcresOfAdventure
      @AcresOfAdventure  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes agreed, much easier to keep 6 of them healthy and a close eye on them then 300 of them. Thank you for watching Tina!

    Once they get older what do you use for 🪱 worms and mites?

    • @ashleehouse5204
      @ashleehouse5204 ปีที่แล้ว

      I put garlic cloves in their water for a couple days for worms and put de in dust bath and coop for mites. When I see mites on them I'll rub the de directly on them. It's bad for their respiratory system though so just a little bit and be careful not to get it in the air. Just my thoughts on it.

      Same thing I just tried. Hope it works. Thank you.
