I put a 2x2 in there and they do like to sit on it. However at almost 5 weeks they have decided the top of the brooder is a good perch! lol! I do have a lid but up until now I have not needed!
Yeah I have been doing lots of reading on here and I am feeling bad that I did not put a roost in there for them--they are going to be delayed! lol! I will remedy that somehow today!!
So I was reading a chicken book today and it said around 4weeks the chicks will like settling on their roosts. Well my chicks are still in the brooder and I dont have a roost. Should I?
