Thanks it is cold n dry here. The person I got the chickens from heated the coop. I am going to build a new insulated coop next summer with a heated floor. It is going to be a five star coop
I intergrated 4 new chicks to 3 old chickens last night. The chicks are 7 weeks old. They are in a coop with a run. The newbies do not seem like they are part of the flock yet. How long should I wait until I release tham to free range the yard? I am guessing about a week.
