What to Know Before You Visit TSC Chick Days 

Spring is here, and across the country, backyard flock owners are gearing up for the season. Whether you’re a seasoned chicken keeper or bringing home your very first birds, spring is chick season. Chances are, you’ve already heard the buzz around TSC Chick Days. 

These seasonal events at Tractor Supply stores introduce millions of Americans to the joys of raising backyard birds. Wherever you get your chicks—TSC chick days, your local feed store or a trusted breeder—what comes after you bring those chicks home is what matters most. 

And that’s where Backyard Boost® comes in. 

If You’re Going to TSC Chick Days—Read This First 

Heading to TSC Chick Days this spring? You’re not alone. It’s one of the biggest ways new poultry enthusiasts start their flock journey. But while it’s a convenient place to meet your future egg-layers, it’s important to be ready before you walk out with a cardboard box of fluff. 

Make sure you have: 

• A warm brooder set up in advance 

• Clean feeders and waterers 

• Access to chick starter feed 

• A plan for immune and digestive support—like Backyard Boost Defense 

And most importantly: a trusted local partner to help guide you through those early questions. 

Don’t Forget Your Local Feed Store 

Look—we get it. TSC Chick Days makes chicks more accessible to more people. But we’d be remiss if we didn’t encourage you to go a step further and connect with your local feed store or BioZyme® dealer. These folks know poultry. They’ve raised birds, answered every question under the sun and built their businesses by caring deeply about their customers’ flocks. 

We work with hundreds of small-town retailers who stock Backyard Boost and can help you navigate everything from heat lamp setups to pullet vs. cockerel debates. 

👉 Find your local retailer and get the personalized advice you—and your chicks—deserve. 

Healthy Chicks Start with Smart Support 

Chicks are delicate creatures. They’re adjusting to a new environment, learning to eat and drink and developing immune systems—all in a matter of days. 

That’s why Backyard Boost Defense is a favorite among poultry owners. This liquid supplement supports chicks through times of transition and stress. It’s powered by AO-Biotics® Amaferm®, a prebiotic research-proven to improve nutrient intake. 

Whether you grabbed your birds during TSC Chick Days or at a small-town feed store, one thing is certain: the first few weeks are critical to their success. Help your chicks thrive by adding Defense to their water as soon as they arrive at your coop.
