Baby Chicks: Magic Water, Preparing the Brooder, Introducing the Chicks

My family is getting its first little flock this week: Rhode Island Reds, Easter Eggers, and Olive Eggers. Join me as I make some magic water (to bolster their immune systems), prepare their brooder, and introduce the chicks to the brooder.
Magic Water Recipe:
1/2 gallon water
2 Tbs. apple cider vinegar (ideally with the mother)
1/4 C. honey (ideally raw)
1 clove garlic
00:00-3:51 Making magic water
3:52-8:13 Preparing the brooder
8:14-11:54 Introducing chicks to the brooder

Thank! Between my kids, the chicks, and my seedlings, we’ve got a house full of babies.

I love this sweet little project - enjoy all of the wonderful events raising your own chicks! Kiddos, you are doing a great job with Mom!

Thanks! When I told me daughter that she would be responsible for helping to feed the chickens, she told me she needed a bonnet 😆. I have no clue where they get this stuff. Anyhow, her grandma got her a bonnet today.

I just started following you and OMG I love your channel!! My partner and I just got a place in the country (our dream forever!!) and I will be watching all your videos for advice. I already shared the part of starter "water" with him and he's definitely loving it. The kids reaction to the chicks was adorable!! xoxo Cella
