About this event
This free, 30-minute online "mini" class is perfectly designed for those considering raising their own chickens or for those who would like a refresher about what it takes to raise baby chicks.
Cherie Sintes-Glover, Urban Chicken Consultant, will cover how to set-up a brooder and care for your baby chickens in a way that will keep them healthy and safe! From what you need to know before bringing the chicks home, to helping them through their first few weeks - she'll explain everything you need to know about being a Mother Hen.

We have an extended "Chickens 101" coming up on May 3rd which includes live chat Q&A and a limited class size, as well as future classes on Getting The Best Eggs and Keeping Your Flock Healthy.
