Chicks 3 days old |
I "brood" my chicks in a rubbermaid container. I previously had not purchased a heat lamp for hatched chicks, but because these one are exceptionally small I decided I should. There is a quarter to reference size.

When full grown these chickens are still really small! Average less than one pound! They are definitely not worth eating, and are mainly for show. They are supposed to make really good pets too, affectionate like a cat or dog. I've heard of people keeping these chickens in their house, wearing a chicken diaper - oddly enough.
