Thumbing through a baby chickens for sale in Biddeford Maine
catalog is a yearly traditions in many houses. My kids and I eagerly await
the Murray McMurray Hatchery catalog. We love looking at all the cool and
different chicken breeds available. Catalogs are free so head on over to
their site and request one if you are interested.
Typically hatcheries online offer both standard breeds
and bantams. Bantams are fun hardy little chickens, they lay tiny eggs
that kids especially love collecting. Bantams typically weigh less than 2
pounds when full grown. Just like ordering anything online there are pros
and cons to ordering baby chicks online. Pros of buying baby chicks in
Biddeford Maine * Big Selection - If you are wanting a large
variety of different chicken breeds and egg colors, you will find the best
selection at an online hatchery. * Both Bantams and full sized chickens
available * You get to choose what sex you want. If you want a mixture of
both male and female then choosing a "straight run" will save you money
and you will get a mixture of male and female chicks. You can also choose
all males or all females too. * Weekly specials. Hatcheries have sales on
chicks, you are likely to get a good deal if you are flexible with the
breeds you are wanting. Cons of buying baby chicks in Biddeford
Maine * Order early to get the best selection. Certain breeds sell
out fast, sometimes as early as 6 months in advance of shipping! If you
are wanting a certain breed it's best to order your chicks in the fall
before their orders sell out.

Quantity - you must order a certain number of chicks. Typically hatcheries
will require you buy a minimum of 25 chicks at a time. The number is
necessary for the chicks survival during shipping. All 25 chicks are put
in one small box without heat. They are crowded in the box and produce
enough body heat to arrive in good shape. * The wait - If you choose to
buy chicks from a feed store you will have them the same day but if you
choose to go with a hatchery you have to wait until they are ready to ship
and then wait for the chicks to arrive. Ordering baby chicks online in
Biddeford Maine is easy and has always been a very pleasant
experience of me. It can be a little frustrating waiting for the chicks
but it's so worth the wait. When the post office calls and you hear all
those little "cheeps" or "chirps" in the background you'll know the wait
was worth it! How to Care for your new baby chickens in Biddeford,
Maine Baby chicks are extremely
adorable and
challenging to resist,
yet it's ideal to prepare for their
arrival before you get them. Prepare initially
by gathering not just the
appropriate products, yet
likewise the proper
understanding to look after
them. Raising baby chicks is reasonably
basic, you simply need
to provide them with the following: A tidy as well as cozy
environment Lots of food as well
as water Attention as well as
love Habitat Your habitat could be a straightforward box, aquarium,
cat service provider, or guinea
porker cage. Line it with old towels and also
blankets (without any loose
strings!) to begin, and after a few weeks make use of straw over newspaper.
Note: Avoid using only
paper or various other slipper
surfaces-- or your chicks legs can grow
misshapen. You additionally need
something to serve up food and also
water in, such as a chicken feeder as well as water
recipe from the feed store, or a pickle jar
cover for food as well as a pet dog bird water dispenser from an animal store. Likewise, as the chicks grow older you can introduce a perch
right into the environment to get them
trained on perching. Warmth To
keep your chicks warm you need to
give them with a heat resource.
This can be as simple as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp design light from a
hardware shop, or an infrared reptile heat
light bulb also function very
well (my
recommendation). Chicks require this
heat 24/7 until their downy fluff is
changed with plumes (which could use
up to 2 months). The newly
hatched need a temperature level
in between 90 and also 100 degrees,
and also each week this could
be reduced by
roughly 5 degrees or
so. The heat source must get on simply one side of the cage
to allow chicks an array of
temperatures. The chicks are your best
thermostat- if they are hiding in the
other corner of your heat
lamp, you have to
lower the temperature. If
they are smothering each other under the
warmth (not simply snuggling),
you need to put some warmth.
Housekeeping
Tidiness is key and also it keeps your chicks healthy. Make certain to transform
the bed linen
often and
consistently give clean
food and water Food and also water.
Chicks expand extremely fast
which calls for plenty of tidy
food and also water. Give
sufficient in any way times and also inspect
frequently to
stop dehydrated as well as
hungry chicks. Chick food is various than adult chicken food, as well as it comes
in both medicated and non-medicated selections. Feed chick food for the
very first 2 months, after that
switch over to a raiser food (~ 17 %
healthy protein) for an additional 2 months,
and then to a somewhat
reduced protein feed or a layer feed
(if you have layers). Soil Some chicks prefer to obtain a running start on taking
dust baths, while others won't use up that activity until they are
older. If you have the space in your chick
room, present a tray of sand or
filth for them to shower in.
Attention as well as love There are a couple of benefits to hanging
out with your chicks. To start
with, they will more than likely bond with you and also
not flee as adults. Second, if you
examine your chicks daily and
watch their behavior, you could
capture health problem or various
other problems earlier. Keep an
eye out for wheezing, limping, or
other harmful
indications. Make certain to
also consider
their poop, as looseness of the bowels can cause matted feathers as well
as clogged up cloaca.
Last but not least, it is necessary to look out
for social issues, such as the
littlest chick getting badgered. Empty nest disorder So your
chicks are now fully feathery
and also its time for them to leave the
security of your house
as well as move outside right into a
coop. Have a look at our
part on chicken cages to learn more
regarding cages and
appropriate cage habitats.
