RE: Chick Update and the new Warming Plate - 4-H and Homesteading

in #homesteading5 years ago

They are so cute and the heat plate is a great product. I have been thinking about raising some chickens, but since I have to get a permit, I'm not sure it's worth it fiscally.

Thanks for sharing this great innovation.😀

A permit is a pain for sure, but you have to balance out what they would be giving you in return. Most hatcheries will offer you just pullets if you want to be sure to not have any noise makers (roosters). Most of our chicks came from a layer mix.
