Thanks for your post. I've had them outside in a hen house for a week now, they seem to be doing well. We covered the entrance to the ' downstairs' of the hen house thinking what if they get hurt going down the 'stairs' - they are about 5-6 weeks now, all feathered. Does anyone think it's a bad idea to open up the downstairs? Thanks!

At 5 - 6 weeks old, they should be fully feathered, weaned from extra heat, and aside from needing lots of protection from predators, they should be able to come and go from their coop into a secure run. Time to cut those apron strings, and watch them grow up!!!
