We thought our 100 Cornish cross chicks were coming the 5th (their ship date), but they arrived the 7th. When 105 healthy chicks arrived from Valley Farms ($1.86/chick) the kiddos were elated. Then chicks started dying because the heat lamps were insufficient - 6 the first frosty night, 9 the second. Tears were shed. When I went to get broiler feed from Zakaraison Partnership Feed Sales, Sheryl heard our plight and lent us the pictured AWESOME Premier heater plates. She was a godsent, and our losses stopped at 19 total (none after the plates arrived). We will buy some of our own just as soon as Premier gets more in stock. Sheryl and Eric, thank you so much!
