Hi, Im new to raising chickens and new to this site. This question has probably been asked several times. I have my chicks in a kiddie pool under a light inside the coop. My coop is a older utility shed. I've put up a wall inside the coop for a storage area and the actual coop. If I leave the light on, can turn my 2 week old chicks loose in the coop. They won't be going outside for 3-4 more weeks.
