Baby Chicks and brooder box for sale also Silkie Roosters. Chicks £10
Description : 05 Jan, 2024
I am selling 4 x baby chicks with a wooden brooder box, to get someone started. £70
ONLY 3 boxes left now, and just a few chicks £10 each (about a month old)
NB: Chicks take 3 weeks and I'm only taking pre-orders right now.
Priority goes to those who order them with boxes, as I often hatch a few extra, and when the pre order is ready, buyers are notifies how many have hatched and they usually take the extra 2 or 3 chicks.
Update:
I have provided links to the other equipment you will need as it is easier to buy yourself just in case you need to return anything:
You will need to buy:
Heating Lamps
chick crumbs from the pet shop
Drinkers and feeders
Additional chicks are available at £10 each.
I also have some beautiful Silkie Roosters
8/9 month old pure breed Cochin Rooster (Black - large fowl) £45
10/11 month old pure breed Brahma Roosters £50 (very large fowl - 2nd largest chickens in the world!)
Brooder Boxes are £50 each
This will need to be kept indoors for at least 2 months.
Heat lamp can usually be turned off after 1 month.
Please note:
YOU MUST KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING BEFORE BUYING CHICKS!
There is a hell of a lot of responsibility when looking after chicks/hens:
1. If buying chicks, you need a proper set up ie heat lamps / brooders at various watts and levels depending on age, proper feed depending on age, vitamins etc
2. Chicks are typically ready to go outside at 3 to 4 months depending on the type of chick, weather and other factors (you can mon sense here).
3. When outdoors you need to make sure their coop is predator proof. Those £100 coops you can get on Amazon/ManoMano, foxes can get into those!
4. Chicks especially silkies can be very difficult to sex, so you may not even know you have roosters until 4 months time when they start crowing, so be prepared for that.
We have hatched 10 eggs with just one rooster and other times we hatched 7 eggs and all turned out to be roosters! I'm fairly confident I can predict the Bantams sex at about a month, but silkies I have no idea.
5. These are very social animals and constantly want attention, if you have just a couple of chicks, then if you take one out to stroke and play with, then the other one will constantly cry, because it wants it's buddy back! So be aware if you just have 2 or 3 young chicks and they don't make it then the lonely one will constantly be crying!
6.Silkies are super friendly, but due to their hair covering their eyes and also their nature, they are prone to predators!
7.Bantams are small chickens and lay small eggs (but super delicious)!
Thanks for reading.
