If you want them to sleep on the roost, you probably have to put them on it.Wait… I have to put the chicks on their roost? I moved them out in haste as the new husky puppy has been terrorizing the pullets and actually caught one. Cinnabon is fine. Puppy caught a whoopin.
They were off the heat lamp inside the house for nearly a week and we keep the house in the mid to high 60s most of the day. It’s warmer outside than that.
First day/night outside and they’re chirping a lot and all huddled together. It’s low 70s outside… is there some sort or adjustment period? Or did I just throw them to the wolves?
Yep, they need your help.did I just throw them to the wolves?

Do they have a heat plate or lamp? If not, I would put one out there, just in case they're cold. Did you wean them off of heat slowly, or just put them out there? Chicks cheeping loudly is never a good sign. They're either scared or cold or both.
