FFF Photo a Day - Day 125
In previous posts, I've alluded to our plan to use our new greenhouse addition on the barn as a multi-level space. Chicks on the bottom and seedlings on top!
The birds need warmth which in turn heat the soil and roots of the seedlings speeding germination and growth.
With our unseasonably warm spring days its taken a bit of adjustment to keep the temperatures even throughout a 24 hour period, however I think we have a system that is working well now and everyone (plants and birds) seem to be doing well in the space.
This is really neat! Will the birdies stay there when they are full grown, or is that space only for chicks?
ReplyDeleteThis is only for the chicks before they get their full feathers. They need warm temperatures before that and this space is perfect. After that they go out on pasture and range through the fields.
