Got a balloon. Huh? That's cool. We're going to do with that pocket here in Florida. Pop it. All right, blow it up and pop it. Come on. Pop pot. That was really exciting.

I think I'll title this episode, boy blows up a flown in pops that I really liked this area out here. Uh, it's nice that it's next to the house. We can look out our kitchen window and see what these guys are up to. At night. Many times I have caught a possum or raccoon or something, just walking around, peeking at them that they're not fenced in outside of this. So it gives me a good chance of checking them out. But promise, there is a big light right up. Yeah. So I don't know how great a sleep they get because they got a pretty big light out here. Doesn't get real dark, like a coupon, but give and take. I get to watch them. I'm sure they get enough sleep. I can sleep in the day. Am I right? Grabbing some more feed for those guys. Got a couple left here in the bed. Don't you love when you find an extra bag of feed that you didn't know about? I forgot. We had run out of room for the layer pellets to one down in the CIC grow area. So now we said that extra bag better

Morning chores, almost done, got to switch out the light for the chicks, clean out their waters and then refill their food and make sure nobody's deceased. That's better. Who wants a red light on there? So this one's still alive and she's looking really not good. Looking very weak. I may have to separate out these big ones that are three times their size chickens looking really weak. I don't think it'll last much longer. I'm not sure if it's worth separating it out. We like to give every kid a chance and I don't think he's going to get a very good chance being in here with the really big chickens in care teams.

So we've got a couple options. One that separates into three sections that brooder there's a board that goes up, but that would give everybody a smaller space. It'd be of them two thirds of the space where they would have one third of the space for the injured one. I'd probably just move all those frizzles in there. So my other option is to build another brood over here and we do have a big birder set up that we used for the meat birds and early spring. I think I can just build a tub. It won't be as visibly pleasing, but it's a good, quick setup to help our smaller chicks have their own area and not have to fight over food and water.

All right. So we have got the furloughs proposals down their own area. This guy doesn't look good at all. He's not going to make it so temporarily. I got the Frizzell separated. I don't think that one's going to make it. It looks like it's about gone. So if it goes, any other ones are doing fine and they're doing okay here and here with the others. I might just put it back. I just jumped off the log. There's a little life and it still, hopefully it gets warmed up here. We'll come back and check on them in a little bit. If he's going to any better, we'll just keep them over there. If he dies, we'll just put the others probably back here. Cause they were doing okay. Never a boring day on the farm, especially with little babies kittens and chicks.

He came back just to move them. This check is it's dead. Then maybe it could be revived by heat, but now it's, it's gone poor guy.

The next day y'all just came out of her. Still wet. Could you have girl, let me show you how to put them in a bigger brooder. So there's our main burner right here. That's always here. It's permanent. It's big and bulky. Well, this is our temporary one that all sides come down and can lay flat having an issue because some of the smaller chicks in here were getting bullied or smashed by the bigger chickens and turkeys over here. So I wanted to separate out the bigger ones. That is a bigger heat plate that I got from premier one. I'll put a link to it in the description, put a couple of waters and then a feeder right here that they can get under. There there's no heat lamp. So last night they were kind of freaking out standing right there, watching these guys have fun in their heat lamp. They thought they were missing out on it, but they have just as much heat and all the food and water that they had before.

Let me get these guys out to the chicken tractor,

Bone diets split out the big chicks last night.

Look another hurdle

Last one last night. And then we just lost one since then, which I'm glad I put out the new brooder. Cause I would've really been mad at myself if I didn't do that. And this turned up dead, I would have blamed myself for not moving the bigger ones over. So even with all the smaller ones over there, still having a problem with them piling up under the heat plate, even though there's a heat lamp over here.

So it's just,

I don't know, there's some of these chicks are just too small. There's too small and I don't even know if they'd make it, you know, even being on their own. But that's the only way I could know for sure is if they were in their own area. So, and this is a company
