So we are currently kicking our heels in a temporary house in Pembrokeshire waiting for our house purchase to finally get sorted and completed. I'm running through plans of what we can do once we move into our new smallholding. As a fun mini project I'm giving thought to raising some chickens. Now I've had chooks for over a decade and they've varied in age from approx 4mths until old age, so it isn't a new experience but I've been giving thought to buying some fertile eggs from a local seller and attempting to hatch them.
Could anyone offer some advise of what to watch out for? Basic Necessities I may not of thought of? At the moment the shopping list is incubator, heat lamp/brooder and a cat-proof pen to keep them in with feed/drinkers
