I know right! And I agree! I love seeing their feathers come in and how beautiful they are!
Hello my friends. This is Ed Miller from Greenville SC. I raised rabbits before and sold them for meat rabbits. I had about 100 at one time

That’s awesome! Thanks for sharing!
I just want to share, that If you are getting pasty butt like that, you need to change your food. Most times pasty butt is caused by nutritional deficits and/or too much heat. Sometimes it can stressed related too. But your chicks look comfy and chill (I'd give a tad but more space, its 0.5-1 sq ft per bird). I have raised hundreds of chicks and have never had pasty butt. If you really don't want to change your food, you could also try adding in some rooster booster or nutritional yeast.

Thank you for the tip! We will absolutely keep that in mind when we start raising more. We think it was stress related due to our cats sneaking into the room and scaring them.
Thank you for your share I have a 3-week going on 4 weeks do you know how old do they have to be with other chicks that they haven't been around before?

I would put them in a separate cage with the other chickens for a week or two. Let them see the chicks and get used to them being around each other and then supervise them as they greet each such other. It’s not so much the age that matters, it’s the chickens getting used to each other. Use a dog crate for now so they get used to each other. Hope this helps!

I have also heard that an Epsom salt bath works for pasty butt.
