Somehow, someway, more chicks have found their way onto our homestead.  In the name of food security and the uncertainty surrounding our current time, I broke a promise I made to myself just a couple weeks ago.  If you’re feeling that same itch or you have yet to purchase chicks this season, I’m here to give you a thorough rundown on the best practices when it comes to finding the right chicks to suit your needs.  Learn about some specialty items like heat plates, heat lamps, electrolyte solutions, and much more.  I promise, this is it for the chicks! >>  My homemade electrolyte recipe:   https://www.theprairiehomestead.com/2017/02/homemade-electrolyte-recipe-chicks.html>> To begin this homesteading journey, head to http://www.theprairiehomestead.com/grow to access my full library of resources to guide you down the path.>> Head over to www.theprairiehomestead.com for from-scratch recipes, homestead inspiration, and old-fashioned tutorials.>> Get your Old-Fashioned on Purpose Swag at www.homesteadswag.com>> Follow Jill on YouTube: http://youtube.com/theprairiehomestead>> Follow Jill on Instagram: http://instagram.com/theprairiehomestead>> Follow Jill on Facebook: http://facebook.com/theprairiehomestead
