Is my Flock City chick a rooster? Email us some pictures and/or video so we can help you determine if your chicken is indeed a rooster. If we do determine rooster, we will help you with next steps. Worth noting- it's really hard to determine definitively until the chicks are around 10 weeks old.
When can I add treats? Give your chicks at least a week of adjusting to your brooder and the food you're providing before introducing treats. If after a week all systems appear to be functioning normally, you can add small amounts of grubs, veggies and fruit.
How can I keep my chicks from getting bored in the brooder? Take them outside for field trips on a warm, dry day! Make sure you stay close or have a protected space for them to be in as they are very vulnerable when young. If the weather is terrible, bring some of the outside inside to the brooder. A small tub with some soil goes a long way to keep chicks entertained. Adding a small roost bar for them to practice on is also a way to bust boredom.
Can I cancel my chick order? Yes, orders can be canceled with a $25 cancellation fee. There are no refunds for orders canceled with one week of chick pickup.
My favorite breed is listed as sold out! Any options? Email to be added to the wait list. Occasionally there are cancellations that make sold out chicks available again.
