It begins
To answer the incoming questions:
No, this is not their permanent set up. Everything that could go wrong did go wrong this morning.
Yes, that is paper towel. The wood shavings had mold.
Yes, the paper towel got wet. Chick waterers are the bane of my existence. It's been changed.
Yes, the chick feed is on a plate. I broke the feeder thingy.
Yes, they have a heat lamp. I had it off for the pics because it made the color weird. There's also a heat mat (on a thermostat, don't worry) for nighttime.
I just wanted to share pics after having to stand in the farm store for an hour and a half trying to get chicks apparently it's a popular idea this spring.
Anyway - Pics! I'm off to get a new feeder and a new pack of shavings.
