Chicken oweners want to know more about chicks?
Now that the holidays are coming to a close and as we move into the new year, it’s time to be thinking about if, when and where you are going to get your new chicks. February seems to be the month that feed stores typically start getting in their supply of chicks, and that’s just around the corner! It’s best to plan for starting or expanding your flock before the fact, rather than just going to the feed store one day and coming home with baby chicks. Now is the perfect time to start planning and preparing.
Baby chicks are so cute and irresistible. Although raising chickens isn’t exactly what I would call labor intensive, they do require daily care and maintenance, and serious thought should be given to starting a flock. Some things to think about before getting chicks: 1) Why do I want chicks? 2) How many should I get? and 3) Where should I get my chicks?
It is also a good idea to check with your town or city’s ordinances regarding keeping farm animals and backyard poultry. There might be limits on what kind and how many chickens you can have, or regulations on size of coop buildings. Make sure you comply with regulations so you don’t have to disband an endeared flock of birds or tear down a chicken coop.
