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
Macatawa Michigan * 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

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

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
Macatawa Michigan 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 Macatawa,
Michigan Baby chicks are very
adorable as well as
hard to stand up to,
but it's finest to prepare for their
arrival prior to you obtain them. Prepare initially
by collecting not just the
correct products, however
likewise the proper
knowledge to look after
them. Raising baby chicks is relatively
simple, you simply need
to offer them with the following: A tidy and also warm and comfortable
habitat A lot of food and also water Attention and
love Habitat Your habitat could be a basic box, aquarium,
cat carrier, or guinea
porker cage. Line it with old towels and also
coverings (with no loosened
strings!) to begin, and after a few weeks use straw over newspaper.
Keep in mind: Avoid utilizing just
paper or other sandal
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 and water
recipe from the feed shop, or a pickle jar
cover for food as well as a family
pet bird water dispenser from a pet shop. Additionally, as the chicks grow older you can present a perch
right into the habitat to obtain them
trained on perching. Heat To
keep your chicks heat you need to
give them with a warmth source.
This can be as simple as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp style lamp from an equipment store, or an infrared reptile heat
bulb additionally function extremely well (my
suggestion). Chicks need this
heat 24/7 until their downy fluff is
replaced with plumes (which can occupy to two months). The freshly
hatched require a temperature
between 90 as well as 100 levels,
and also weekly this could
be minimized by
roughly 5 levels or
so. The warmth resource ought
to be on just one side of the cage
to enable chicks a range of
temperature levels. The chicks are your finest
thermostat- if they are hiding in the
contrary edge of your warmth
light, you have to
reduce the temperature. If
they are surrounding each various other under the
warmth (not just cuddling),
you need to include some warmth.
House cleaning
Cleanliness is essential as
well as it maintains your chicks healthy and
balanced. Make certain to change
the bedding
often as well as
always provide clean
food as well as water Food as well as water.
Chicks expand extremely quickly
which calls for a lot of clean
food and water. Supply
sufficient at all times as well
as examine
frequently to avoid dehydrated and also
hungry chicks. Chick food is various than adult chicken food, and also it is available in both medicated and non-medicated ranges. Feed chick food for the
very first 2 months, after that
switch over to a grower food (~ 17 %
protein) for one more 2 months,
and after that to a slightly
reduced healthy protein feed or a layer feed
(if you have levels). Soil Some chicks prefer to get a running start on taking
dust baths, while others won't take
up that task until they are
older. If you have the area in your chick
room, introduce a tray of sand or
dirt for them to wash in.
Attention as well as love There are a
few benefits to spending time with your chicks. To start
with, they will most
likely bond with you and
not flee as grownups. Second, if you
analyze your chicks daily as well as
enjoy their actions, you could
capture health problem or other problems previously. Watch out for wheezing, hopping, or
other unhealthy
indications. Make sure to
also take a look at
their poop, as diarrhea could bring about matted feathers and also stopped up cloaca.
Last but not least, it is necessary to keep an eye out for social concerns, such as the
littlest chick obtaining badgered. Empty nest syndrome So your
chicks are now fully feathery
as well as its time for them to leave the
security of your residence
as well as move outside into a cage. Check out our
area on chicken cages to get more information
regarding coops and
appropriate coop habitats.
