Homemade Chicken Brooders



We decided to expand the chicken flock to include 12 hens. The breeds are a mix of Rhode Island Reds, Red Sexlinks, and Production Reds.Poppy and Dante have built 2 super great chicken brooders that are currently in the laundry room. The chicks are about 3 weeks old now and doing great. They will move outside as soon as it gets a bit warmer and they get all of their feathers. We are still debating on the best way to integrate these littler ones in with the old mamas. Will be interesting if nothing else.
