Chicks - Week 2
It's the end of weeks 2 for our new chicks, and they sure have grown. I'm especially amazed at how fast the Peking duck grows. I can make out the different colors for the Freedom Ranger Broilers now. They are tricolor, redbro and yellow. I expanded the brooder floor space to give them more to move around. They are getting hardier now, so I keep the heat on at night, but turn it off during the day. Next week I will start letting them outside during the day to forage.
They have grown very quickly! I can't wait to see what you do with the Peking duck!
