We got baby chicks! I knew Mom & Dad were planning to do this eventually, so I was surprised when they walked out of Tractor Supply Co. with them. They had gone in to buy supplies for them, so we'd be ready when we got them.
We currently have them in a box in our garage. We had to buy wood shavings and a special heat lamp and water container for them. We lined the cardboard box with newspapers, then covered it with wood shavings.

I must be out of my mind; uploading pictures that don't have me in them.....
Now for the chicks:
My Dad will be building the Chicken Tractor for them, and then they will stay outside. But for now, we'll keep them in our garage.
