Chirping
Hello all. We are currently awaiting delivery (end of May) of 25 new chicks. Our plan has been to brood the chicks outside in the enclosed coop and run. This would be much easier than trying to make space inside to brood that number of chicks. My concern is with the timing and temps. We are in the Phoenix area and temps are already nearing the 100 degree mark regularly. By the time the chicks are delivered, temps will be 100+ almost daily.
Will the chicks be ok in these temps or should we really reconsider this plan? if we should brood them inside, what suggestions do you all have for something capable of raising 25 chicks in? All thoughts and recommendations are welcome and appreciated.
