I show you how to make your own chick starter feed. please note, this recipe has not been tested as a complete and or balanced formula. This is just what I came up with and it seem to work just fine, which includes the addition of the natural ingredients also mentioned in the video. *I failed to mention that the Strong Animals Chicken Elixir that I may put in their water contains calcium. While I do add a bit of that occasionally, they don't get much. The reason is that you don't want to give chicks too much calcium before they start laying. *Also in addition to the elixir and acv, I also sometimes may add Save a Chick's electrolyte and probiotics to their water. In addition to the video, you can increase protein by feeding them mashed meat such as fish meal or other meaty protein source. https://youtu.be/QAcurFNF5Qg

Waterers for chickens in the winter. In this video, I show you three 3 different chicken waterers to help keep the water from freezing. UPDATE: The galvanized double wall fount did not freeze to just under 10 degrees F but did freeze past that. However we put one of those Aldi insulated shopping bags over it and it hasn't froze yet even at -13F. Yes, that's negative 13F VIDEO: HOW WE PREP CHICKENS FOR WINTER https://youtu.be/dFC7FM1_ewg?si=Wmw5xDjDMA_nhAcO Looking for thick durable vacuum sealing bags and rolls?
