I've been really intrigued by the idea of setting my "brooder" up outdoors, attached to my coop, and raising day old chicks there from the start.
My biggest questions are:
- where to start?
- what are the most needed supplies?
- will the chicks be able to handle a sudden freeze? (if they have a heat pack or some sort of course)
- and are the benefits I read so much about actually true? It sounds almost to good!
I plan to do May chicks, and an outdoor setup might be perfect for me if it's really safe and going to keep my soon to come chicks happy!
The types of chicks I plan for are Americanas, cochin, salmon faverolle, orphingtons, and a couple others.
I appreciate any help! Have an amazing day~☆
