Soon after bringing home the NZW rabbits, we were in TSC aka Tractor Supply in Huntsville (as we often are). They were having "Chick Days," so they had baby chickens all the time, and sometimes they had ducklings as well. We had already bought heat lamps, feeders, waterers, etc., in anticipation of ordering chicks from a hatchery. We (as in, I, after DS11 Sean begged) decided to take home a dozen of little red fluffballs from TSC. So around April 18, these came home with us:
See the white splotches on the sides of the brooder? Those are the remains of coralline algae. This is one of the 100 gallon stock tanks that housed coral and anemones back in the garage in the house in Durham. We almost didn't bring the three stock tanks with us, but now are glad we did. They've been wonderful poultry brooders!
