I could use some advice please,
I have 6 and 8 week old chicks in the brooder. Weather has changed here in Victoria, we are going to get some hot days. Would it be safe to put them out in their own A frame pen now, or wait longer?
In this bunch are 3 SilverLace pullets, they are smaller and not so confident, at what agecan I integrate them into my main flock of hens only?
Thanks in advance
Andrew
I have usually put mine outside by 6 weeks of age. So long as they are feathered they will be fine.
Be sure to give them shallow waterer's , I've still seen them drown at this age.
