Baby Chickens! Going to the BIG HOUSE!
What happens here
After preparing the coop and installing the automatic door, the host sets up the interior essentials for the chicks. He places a chick feeder filled with food on the bedding. He installs a heat lamp, clipping it to a wooden beam inside the coop, and emphasizes the importance of maintaining an ambient temperature of 80-95 degrees Fahrenheit for young chicks, especially at night. Finally, he mentions that the waterer will be hung from the ceiling (using a string he has yet to install) to prevent the chicks from kicking bedding into it, keeping the water clean.
Goal: Provide essential resources (food, water, heat) for the chicks within the coop.
